And the bredth between the Shoulders of a Woman contains but two lengths of the Face and from the Hips to the Buttocks two lenghs of the Head 6. Observe how the Measures of the Body are divided The first Measure contains the length of the Head The second to the bottom of the Breast The third from that to the Navil The fourth to the Privities The fifth to the brawny part of the Thigh The sixth to the lower part of the Knee The seventh to the small of the Leg.
