    Akdiiflint. CtTV'tMtiS. veins which arc diftributcd in this manner to the diftances of the Crifiles, fomc others very worthy of our notice do arifcjwhich are difleminated both into the MufcleSjthat lye upon the Breaft, and into the Paps. Near to thele a third [h^ arifes, and fometimes al- fo grows out oftheTrunk,which is called becaufe it fpreads icfeli into the Medialiinunti or membrane that clofcs up the cavity of the Cheft, being extended all a- long by it, with the left Nerve of the Midriffe. The fourth [i] commonly called Cervr- califi or the Neck-vein,Is a large vein of both fides which running obliquelyjUpward,and backward, to the Tranfverfèprocefles of the Rack-bones of the Ncck^ andclin-ibin'g up through their holes, f from whence perhaps it might be better mtiKO Vertsbrdif ) affords fprigstothe Muffles, that lye next upon the Rack-bones. When this vein has gotabovetheTranfverffProceffc of the feventh Rack-bone, it derives a notable branch of the Sinuf or Canale-, in the Neck, through the hole that is made for the outlet of the . Nerves • and^hen another, when it comes above the^ Procefle of the fixt Spondyli, or Rack-bone, ’and again another, when it has left the fifth Spondyll.untill at laft it comes to the Proceffe of the firft Rack-bone, which notwithftanding it does not touch, much . Icffc does it paffe into the Skull, (as Vefaliuf would have it) near which it goes’ partly to the fame ftrm or canale, partly it is diftributed into the hinder parts of the Neck, F or tliere are two long fmus filled with bloud, which are made out of the hard membrane of the Brain, one of each fide, being placed at the fides of the marrow of the Neck. From thefe little branches are diftributcd, which nourifti the marrow of the Back-bone, and the neighbouring parts j they begin about the Jiinfture of the Head with the firft Rack- bone, and end near to the feventh Rack-bone of the Neck. Thcfftwo/Ki^-, ofwhieh one is of the Right, the other on the Left fide, have fome communion betwixt them-- felvcs by a little pipe, and that a ftiort one, which is derived oyerthwart from the one to the other, for the moft part about that region of the Neckjwhich is betwixt the ffcond, and third Rack- bones. At laft there is a fift vein [1] which ariffs from the hinder part, called Mulmla inferior, or the lower Muffle-vein, which is diftributed in many branches to the Muffles in the lower part of the Neck, (and fo extending the Head and Neck, from whence the vein might be rightlyer called Cer»/c<j/«-,or the Neck-vein) and alfo to thofe in the higher part of the Cheft near to the Rack-bones, pfopaptions ^ Subclavian branches, whikft the Hollow-vein is yet ifi îhenDBcrPwt the Cheft, three propagations iffue forth, two of which do very welldeffrve tobe no- of the Sukcla- ted, which take their way upward, under the Muffles that bend the Head. The forawr viah branche*. qP the two looks more inwards, and is called the inner Jugular vemrthe Jugularkin^ other inclines to the outer parts, and is commonly called Jugular if externa, the outer Ju¬ gular vein. For both of them ariff near to the or Hollow of the Neck, and affend by that to the Head. The inner is greater, and the outer lefle in a man ; but in Brutes’tis contrary. But when almoft all Appellations are derived, and that beft, not from the place, through which the veins paffe, but from their insertion 5 perhaps they might be rightlier named Cefhalicæ or Crfpft^j/eijHead-vcins. The inner Jugular vein [_rnj takes its originali near to the joint,by which the Clavicles or Patel-boncs are tyed to the Cheft, and as foon as it ariffs, is joined with the arteria carotk, or fleepy Artery, and a Nerve of the fixt pair, as companions in its journey, at the fide of the rough Artery, and climbing to the Chops, about the middle of the way is parted into two branches, of which one is called the outer, the other the inner branch. The outer is fo called, bc- cauft it comes not into the inner parts of the Head, but being divided into two at the corner of the lower Cheek, diftributes one branch to the Chops, and the other near to the Ears, and Face. The inner branch, all the way, is joyned to the Arteria Carotk,or fleepy Artery, evento the bafisof the Skull, whither when it is arrived on thebackfide, it is Hkewiff cleft into two branches, butofuneauallbigneflc. For the firft fnjis greater and more hinderly, being carried backward obliquely, which having propagated twigs to the Muffles under the Gullet, and in the forepart of the Rack-bones of the Neck, through the ffcond hole of the occifitium orNowl-bone enters the Skull with' the leffer branch of the Arttria Caret if^ through which faid hole the fixt pair of the Nerves de- feends : and thus this branch enters the firft Qi J and ffcond [2'] fmus of the thick brane. The ffcond branch fpj being Ihialler, and more to the forepart, quite fomking the Arteria Carotis, or fleepy Artery, goes to the forepart of the Head, and after that by the Way it has beftowed a Circle not very notable upon the Organ of hearing, it enters the Skull through the ff venth hole of the Wedg-bone, or Os cuneiforme, ^ This is dilperffd through the irfyrj, and fides of the thick membrane, with a numerous iflue of branches, the prints whereof are obferved in the inner furface of the bones of the forepart of the Head, as we have faid above in the ffcond Book. Wee will call theff two branches, bc- cauff they go to the brain, Encephalici,as if you fliould fay Cerebrales, ot the Brain, and that flmll be the greater Encefhalicus, this thelefler. The cxternall Jugular vein [q J a- feending under the skki, and the»JK/c«/«# quadratus, or Square-Muffle, that draws down the Cheeks, by. the fidcs of the Neck, when it comes to the Ear, is cleft into two branches frofiaiditt. H one of which I call Profundus, the deep one, becauft it enters the Muffles, and retires ■ ^ into aernd, Mxtornt. figularis externa.
