The fourth N is inferted into the mufcles that are joined to the tranfverfe procejfes of the rack^bones.

The third Y goes to the ww/c/e Deltoides, cf which there is a propaga¬ tion a, which goes to the skjn that covers the mufcles Deltoides and Biceps. The fourth b, at the neckjfthe Jhoulder-blade is cleft into two branches s one of which c, enters into the mufcle Deltoides, at what part it grows out of the collar¬ bone : the other d, is implanted into the fame^ in the place where it grows out of the fiine of the jhoulder-blade. The hinder branch e.

The hinder branch X, The pairs of Nerves from the nineth to the twentieth^ which have the fame feries of propa¬ gations., and ejpecially to the difiances of the ribs. The fore-branches of thefe [fig-t,'] are fcattered into the mufcles feated on the fore-part of the chejf and partly into their upper region., as y, partly in their lower z, which in wo¬ men go aljb to the brefis » and then they fend other furcles into the heads of the oblique defeen- ' ding mufcles of the abdomen a, and into that which leads the arm from the brefi /?, another goes to the nipple of the brefi y. The hinder branches S', The firfi nerve that goes to the arm., which .ii fcattered into the skjn of the outfide of the arm. The fecond nerve that goes to the arm, whofe two firfi propagations nn gO to the two heads of the mufcle biceps : then it joins with the third nerve by a furcle fi, Thirdy, it carries a propa¬ gation to the longer mufcle that turns the palm of the hand downward 0. But about the bending of the cubit it U divided into two branches, an outer, and an inner one That defeending along the radius or wand,is inferted at the out-fide of the fecond joint of the thumb A. This v, is by and by fubdivided into an outer u, and an inner branch vi This V is again cleft in the region of the cubit into an outer branch c,and an inner onejr. The third nerve entering the arm p, before it attains to the arm, (batters a (prig betwixt the pebloral mufcle and Deltoides c. By and by having entered the arm, it difirihutes another into the fecond mufcle that bends the cubit. After that,defcending it receives a branch v from the fe¬ cond nerve, when it is paji the bought of the arm, it is dijhibuted into many furcles (p, at length a- bout the palm of the hand it U divided into three branches y. The fourth Nerve entering the arm, which k the greatefi of all them that go to the arm, is not marked with any letters in the fecond table, but in the third onely, leji the fecond (hould be too much blurred with letters. This fuddenly after it hath entered the arm, reaches out fmaU (prigs a into the mufcles that extend the cubit, then another into the inner skin, upwards and down¬ ward r, and another into the lower part and another 0, which ges as far as to the wrifi. Af¬ ter this near to the bought of the arm it is divi¬ ded into two branches, an outer one A, and an inner Y\, That A about the tranfverfe ligament is again divided into two H.
