of Eggs which the Antients esteemed to be produced by an intense heat but is more truly atributed to the mixture of some acid humour as can be perceived when a little spirit of Vitriol is powred into some Gall it often degenerates in Poraceous rus●y and glasteous according to its degrees of acidity The Melancholy humour or thickest Blood is by some thought to turn by adustion into black choler but according to Regnerus de Graaf this last proceeds from the mixture of Choler with a too acid pancreatical juice whereby it is turned into a greenish black colour as the Antients describe the atrabiliary humour The Excrementitious humours are also 1. Phlegm 2. Choler 3. Melancholly 4. And Serum They are called excrementitious because they can yield no nourishment to the Body and therefore are expelled 1. Phlegm not to the Brains as the Antients conceived but to the Maxillar Glandules and thence through the Mouth and Nostrils out of the Body 2. Choler by the Cystick arteries to the Gall whence the superfluous part is expelled to the Duodenum and thence evacuated at the Seat 3. Melancholly which is not attracted by the Spleen as the Antients supposed but is an Excrement of the grossest Blood which is often evacuated by the Haemorrhoides and is also sent to the Atrabiliary Capsuls to be perhaps voided with the Urine which therefore appears sometimes of a black colour 4. Serum which is either evacuated First In the form of Vapours by transpiration whereby according to Sanct●rius more than the half part of our Aliments are dissipated Secondly Or in the consistence of Urine which being separated from the bloud in the Kidneys and filtred through the Papillar Caruncles into the Pilorus is powred through the Uriters into the Bladder and having received the thinnest and most serous part of the Chylus immediately from the Stomack by the Gastrick Vein is thence evacuated out of the Body To Serum is also referred Sweat and the Tears we shed A Part or Limb is defined A Body adhering to the whole and partaking of the same life with it being created for the exercising of certain Functions They are distinguished in Similaries and Dissimilaries A Similary part is that which cannot be divided in other parts of a different species and it is twofold Spermatick and Carnal 1. The Spermatick are constructed in the first conformation of the body out of the grossest part of the Seed 2. The Carnal out of the MenstrualBlood The Similary parts are Eleven in number 1. Bones 2. Tendrels 3. Ligaments 4. Tendons 5. Membranes 6. Fibres 7. A threefold flesh the Musculous the Parenchyme and the Glandules 8. The Skin 9. The Veines 10. The Arteries 11. And the Nerves or Sinews The Bones are joyned either by I. Diarthrosis or Articulation with some motion either by 1. Enarthosis when there is a considerable quantity of the Bone received in a large Cavity 2. Arthrodia when the receiving cavity is but Supersiciary 3. Ginglime when a Bone receives and is received II. Symphosis or Coalition without Motion 1. Sutures as in the Bones of the Head 2. Harmony as in the Bones of the Nose and upper Jaw 3. Gomphosis as the Teeth And they are bound either by First Syncondrosis or with a Tendrel Secondly Syndeurosis or a Ligament Thirdly Sysarcosis or with some flesh or muscle Note that to the exercising of the Similary parts Functions there needs only their due temper and commoderation A Dissimilary part is that which may be divided in parts of a different Species Many do confound them with the Organical Nevertheless there is this difference that all Dissimilary parts are Organical but not all Organical Dissimilary for the Bones Veins and Arteries are Similary and yet produce Organical actions Four conditions are requisite to the perfect exercising of the Dissimilaries actions namely 1. A due Conformation 2. Magnitude 3. Number 4. And Conjunction Whereof the last comprehends two others to wit Seat and Connexion These parts are distinguished in First Containing and Secondly Contained And then again in 1. Common and 2. Proper Distinguished in 1. Nobles 2. Ignobles First The Noble or principal parts distributing the Spirits and Faculties to the whole Body are absolutely necessary to it They are three Viz. 1. The Brains 2. Heart 3. Liver Which being excepted all the rest are Ignoble as being subservient to them and they are the other parts of 1. the Head 2. Trunk And 3. 〈◊〉 1. The Head is divided in the Soul and Face the common containing parts whereof are the thin and the hairy Skin the fat and the ●leshy Membrane It s proper parts are the Scalp or Pericrane the Perioste the Muscles the Bones and two Meninges The contained parts of it are the Brain the A●ter-brain and the Marrow The second hath in its upper part the sore-head in the lower the mouth and the instruments of the Senses as the Eyes the Eares the Nose c. 2. The Trunk is distinguished in the Breast and lower Belly the proper containing parts of the first besides the Muscles Bones c. Being the Pap the Midriff the Pleure and the Mediastin The contained are either Bowels as the Heart with its purse the Lungs a part of the Weazon and of the throat or Vessels as some branches of the Vena Cava and great Artery sustained by the thymus in the Throat and several Sinews The lower Bellies proper containing parts are the Muscles of the Panch and the Belly-rim The contained are either employed to Nutrition namely to Chylification as the Stomack the Kall the Sweet-bread the Guts and the Mesentery or to Sanguisication as the Mesaraick Veins the post Vein and the Cava the Liver the Gall the Bladder and the Milt 3. The Ioints are divided in the uppermost containing the great Hand namely the Arm that is the Shoulder from the upper shoulder to the Elbow and the Cubit from the Elbow to the Wrist The lesser Hand divided in the Wrist between the Cubit and the Palm and the fist between the Wrist and the beginning of the Fingers whose inward part is called the Palm and the outward the Back of the Hand The undermost contain the great Foot comprehending the Thigh from the Britch to the Knee the Leg from the Knee to the lesser foot which is divided in the Foot Pedium Metapedium and Toes Before we come to Faculties and Functions it will not be amiss to say what the Soul is They define it The substantial Form of a living Body and the inward principle of the actions thereof For The Soul a Substance and a Spirit is Which God himself doth in the Body make Which makes the man for every man from this The Nature of a Man and Name doth take It s connexion with the Body is called Life and its separation Death Neither is this last greatly to be feared of a Christian since it is but a passage to a better Life and that as saith the Italian Poet.
