had to my Master a famous man Fabricius Bartoletus of Bonona Chief Physitian to the Duke of Mantua If you regard the Order you are beholding to me for that I digested it into so many Chapters as publickly it is demonstrated in Anatomies and the Series of every Chapter is in the same manner as it is shewed to the eye in publick Dissections In the Breast I shew the Adductor of the Shoulder and the Muscles of the Scapula called Serrati before the Intercostals the Lumbal Muscles after the Extenders of the back the movers of the Scapula before the muscles of the head and back The reason that I joyn the Tongue with the Larynx is it's singular nexure with the Os Hyois and the Os Hyois with the Larinx the bones of the Limbs are set before the Muscles seeing the greatest part of them move the bones to both I add the Nerves Arteries and veins which the Divine Creator hath made common with the bones and muscles I did not treat of the Nature of similary parts by themselves for brevity sake seeing that belongs rather to Physiology and without Tautology could not here be treated of This I intreat of thee who ever reads this Work That thou wouldest give thy mind as well to pardon failings as to know the truth if thou meetest with any caused either through forgetfulness or non-understnding my serious intent was to lead such young men as are studious in Physick into the Knowledg of Anatomy if my endeavors want strength thou canst not in equity deny me pardon seeing thou thy self maist run upon the same Rocks in other difficulties Farewel The Names of several Books printed by Peter Cole at the sign of the Printing-Press in Cornhil by the Exchange London Five several Books by Nich.

you disdain not to turn thy eyes and mind to the Corps of Man Artificially dissected whether the Profession of Wisdom or Physick delight thee I promise thee here something worth thy labor and not to be despised for there is not the least nor most abject part of Man but by its admirable structure thou maiest know him that made thee to be most wise most powerful Thou shalt find out the causes of all the actions the consent and concord of thy whol Body the Foundation of Health and Sickness thou maiest the better apply Remedies to afflicted parts and in the time when Nature calls for remedy thou needest not be hurried on with rashness nor retarded by fear In the Body of Man both Ventricles and Limbs are to be heeded the common name of Limbs comprehends both Hands and Feet we cal those notable Cavities of the Body Ventricles in which Nature hath placed diverse parts dedicated to diverse actions to settle their abode in Of these are three The first which is the lower is called the Abdomen and is internally compassed with the Psritonaeum it is called the Abdomen because it hides and involves all those Bowels which are ordained for the preparation of the nourishment of the whol Body the begetting of Children the producing and cherishing of the Seed The second which is the middle is bounded about with the Pleura It is in the Fountain of vital heat and in it are the Lungues The third which is the highest is included in the head and stoutly defended by the Skull in this Plato placeth the Coelestial part of Man We because we would avoid putrifaction begin the Dissection at the lower Ventricle or Abdomen whose fore part which is next the lower Cartilages of the Ribs the ancients called Hypochondria and is divided into the right and left But the other we of Modern times very fitly call that part which is next the Stomach and the uppermost Guts Epigastrium but that which contains the lower part of the belly even to the groyn and privities Hypocastrium the middle between the Epigastrium and Hypogastrium we call the region of the Navil the back part of the Abdomen the upper part of it is called the Loyns the lower part the Buttocks Of the parts of the Abdomen some are common to the whol Body some proper to its self the common parts are the skin scarf-skin fat and fleshy Membrane The Skin is a Membranous covering of the Body drawn over the outward parts defending them from injury and giving judgment of tangible Objects I call it a Membranous covering because the substance is the same with a Membrane and it is stretched abroad like it yet it differs from a Membrane in Temperament conformation and office it takes its original not from Blood nor yet from the Vessels but from the Seed and this the first radiments of the Embrion in the womb testifies which Nature compasseth about with a thin skin even so soon as it is compacted Hence also like other Seminal parts even in a Blackmoors under the black thin skin it is white neither when it is lost doth Nature restore again the same but another substance like it which is called a Callus or Scar. It receives its quickness of sence from the Nerves not only the extremity of which but also diverse small branches are spread abroad in it as is very cleer in the third and four pair of Nerves which pass to the face and the sixt pair which pass to the Arms. It receives also many small veins and Arteries that so it may be furnished with blood for nourishment and vital spirit for quickning that the coldness and dryness of it may be allayed that part of of it about the Abdomen is supplied by veins and Arteries from the Epigastricts Lumbals and Mammary branches The Habit of the skin is altogether different according to the variety of temperament age sex and region The skin on the top of the head is thickest that on the sides thin that on the face and palm of the hand thinner and that of the lips thinnest of all that on the tops of the fingers is mean that so the sence of touching might be the more perfect It hath very many passages or holes in it of which some are wide as the mouth nose ears eyes and privities c. seing they are necessary either to receive in food or cast out excrements others are small and innumerable by which sweat and fuliginous vapors transpire It is in colour naturally white and sticks loosly to the fat that is under it so that in some places being cut it may be blown up from it as hath been tryed by some in that barbarous fashion of cuting Leprosies It sticks fast to the fleshy membrane of the fore-head as also to that of the soles of the feet and the palms of the hands So that the motion of those parts it is drawn into wrinkles together with it by which as by Hieroglyphicks the curiosity of mans brain hath drawn indications of things to come A famous thin skin covers this skin externally which the Greeks very acutely call Epidermis the Latins Enticula and we Scarf-skin it takes its original from the dewy moisture on the out side of the skin which is made thick into that form partly by the gentle and nourishing heat of nature partly by the driness round about whence it comes to passe that the Embrion being yet very tender yet this though very soft is found about it it obtains its firmnesse by age even such a firmnesse that sometimes it restrains the excrements that pass through the pores of the skin It is extended all about the body where the skin is and sometimes through hot and fiery vapors that pass through the pores you may see it divided as in such cases when we English say the skin pills off It is all together void of life and sence and yet so firmly knit to the skin that it can hardly be seperated Neither is the use of this Scarf-skin though it seems so smal a busines smal for without this could not the pores of the skin be covered the continual moisture of the body restrained the body be made able to endure heat and cold nor the limbs be clensed of durt and filth Serpents seem yearly to cast off this Scarf-skin but the scaly skin is not a true Scarf-skin but a thin membrane made of viscous slime and filth and the driness of the air about the same happens to men in feavers especially upon their tongue Underneath the skin is the fat which is an unctuous or greasy substance of the body produced out of the Oyly substance of the nourishment which lying like a mat about the body not only defends it from the injury of cold but also restrains the immoderate dissipating or scattering of the internal heat therefore in the Child even when it detained in the womb it begins to grow yet is it more in quantity and thicker after
Mucronata it is the defence of the Diaphragma and sometimes gives passage to the Mammary Vein and Artery this also in old age grows Bony sometimes it stick inwards and sometims outwards and that no small prejudice to the Stomach sometimes it sticks out towards the Navil as long as ones finger and is stiff and then it wonderfully hinders both the distribution of the Chyle by compressing the Pylorus and also the bowing of the Body forwards The Ribs are partly Bony as on the Back and Sides partly Cartiaginous as on the fore part where they are joyned to the Sternum the one encreaseth the strength the other makes the motion of the Breast the easier and the Breast it self the safer from external injuries they are in number on each side twelve of which the seven superior are called True the other inferior Basterd Ribs not because they are shorter but because they end not in the Sternum with Cartilages for indeed nothing in our Bodies is spurious or false but all formed by the hand of Almighty God They have a hollowness in the inferior part through which they give safe passage to the Veins Arteries and intercostal Nerves all the Ribs are bowed in a circular form that so they may give convenient largeness to the Breast externally they are somewhat uneven but internally where they are joyned to the Pleura they are very smooth on the Back they are received by the holes of the Vertebrae some of them have a single some a double knob they are bound together with firm Ligaments and are joyned to the Sternum before by Cartilages and also they stick too on another yet is not their nexure so firm but external injuries often looseth it and in the Dropsie Ascites the water often disjoyn the Cartilages of the inferior Ribs As many Ribs as there are so many Vertebrae are there to receive them and twelve pair of Nerves from the Marrow of the Back proceed from them the formation of Vertebrae is the same with those of the Loyns save only the Bones are more depressed The Muscles of the Breast which cause the motion of it are the Subclavia the triangular Muscle the Intercostals and the Dorsals of the Subclavian Muscles is but one pair only taking its beginning from the inferior part of the Clavicula from whence it passeth to the first Rib and its superiour part which it moveth upwards and outwards The Triangular Muscles are produced from the internal part of the Sternum and stick to the Cartilages of the superiour Ribs which whilst they contract the Heart also moving it self by their softness they keep it from being hurt by the Sternum The Intercostal Muscles on both sides are noted to be twenty two pair of which eleven are external and as many internal distinguishing themselves by the obliquity of their strings The external Muscles proceed from the inferior part of the superior Ribs and end in the superior part of the inferior Rib and therefore by drawing the Ribs they further inspiration The internal intercostal Muscle proceed from the superior part of the inferior Rib and end in the inferior part of the superior and by withdrawing the Ribs help the expiration they receive veins from the Vein without a fellow and the superior intercostal Arteries from the superior and inferior intercostals Nerves from the Marrow of the back from the eleven pair on each side to which the internal branches of the sixt pair joyn themselves As for the Dorsal Muscles though they pertain to the Breast yet are they better found out by dissection when the Carkass is turned over upon its Belly therefore we shal speak of them in the following Chapter yet to the containing parts of the Breast are to the referred The Pleura Mediastinum and Diaphragma The Pleura is a Membrane girding the ribs and their Museles and incompassing all the internal parts of the Breast It hath Veins Arteries and Nerves from the intercostal branches and about the Vertebrae of the back it is manifestly double it is strong every where smooth next the Lungues and firmly knit to the joynts of the back The plenty of vessels often causeth an inflamation in it and corruption is often gathered there and remains sometimes between the sides of the Pleura sometimes neer the Lungues and sometimes in the Cavity of the Breast the Lungues being safe The Mediastinum although it may be reckoned amongst the internal parts of the Breast yet seeing it appears to be only a continuation of the Pleura we will describe them together It is a double Membrane stretched from the Vertebrae of the Breast to the Sternum and distinguisheth both Breast and Lungues to the right and left part bearing up both the Heart and Pericardium It hath a proper Vein of its own which is called Mediastina which ariseth from the subclavian branch of the Vena Cava and it hath other smal branches from the Mammaries and Vein without a Mate it hath Arteries from the Mammaries and Nerves from the sixt pair especially from its left recurrent branch The Largeness of the Mediastinum equals the longitude and depth of the Breast its duplication under the Sternum is evident with an observable interval bteween in which sometimes a conflux of vicious humors and sometimes wind is gathered and in deep Wounds when the vitals themselves are not hurt they admit of a speedy and easie cure It is indifferent firm in respect of strength and soft towards the Lungues and sometimes hath fat on it The Diaphragma follow otherwise called Septum Transversum which is placed between the Breast and the Abdomen and gives bounds to both Cavities and concurs with the external costal Muscles to help inspiration It is framed of a double substance for it hath a Musculous flesh and a double Membrane the superior of which it hath from the Pleura and the inferior from the Peritonaeum and by their concourse they fill up that part of it which wanteth flesh it hath Veins and Arteries from the Vena Cava and great Artery which are joyned to it It hath famous Nerves above from the plexure of the Nerves of the Neck from the greater descending branch of the fifth pair and this causeth the consent between the Diaphragma and the Head and Muscles of the Lips On the right side the Vena Cava and on the left side the Gula passeth through the Diaphragma It is stretched out first of all into two fleshy Secondly into two tendinous processes by which the great Artery descends the rest of its form is almost circular joyned to the Vertebrae of the Loyns and the bastard ribs In the middle where it hath a Nervous centre it is firmly joyned to the Pericardium and sometimes it knits to it self the lobes of the Lungues which lye upon it sometimes it hath Aposthumes in it as big as ones fist which by reason of their weight cause a most extream Difficulty of breathing Place here the Table of the ninth Chapter which
