    REPAIR OF WHITE FIBROUS TISSUE. ]13 and formation of fibrous tissue T have ventured to bring forward. See my Lectures delivered at the Eoyal College of Physicians, 1861. 164. Repair of white flbroiis tissue.—This simple tissue is repaired after injury by the development of tissue of the same character. 'White fibrous tissue may be formed by white blood-corpuscles, or by the masses of bioplasm descended from them. In the repair of injuries to arteries and veins, Mr. Lee and myself traced the production of white fibrous tissue m what was clearly at first but fibrin deposited from the blood, and I have shown that the recent lymph in certain inflammations has a similar origin, and is termed m the same way. In the repair of a divided tendon masses of bioplasm probably result partly from the multiphcation of the adjacent bioplasm of the tissue Itself, and partly from the white blood- corpuscles which have escaped from the divided ves- these '^''^^^^ °^ bioplasm descended from 165. Bioplasm of the cornea.—Stellate masses of bioplasm are remarkably distinct in the corneal tis- sue of all aninials, where they exist in great number, and possess long branching processes which anas- distended with fluid, or contain very Httle, as was PnJ>n! 1 ^' ^ 1 • ^^^^ so-called corneal tTsSe Vf^'t rl.' demonstrated in any corneal tis.sue without difficulty.
