Cusro M has made it atm off necejfary 
to fay fomething prefaratory to every work 
that appears in the world, though of ever 
fo little importance \ but that is not the 
reafcn of this compliance, as lam convinced 
an apology may he expeSed, for venturing 
to publijh a book of this kind, among the 
multitude of Lexicons, Visionaries, isc,. 
that have appeared, in order to explain the 
fenfe and derivation of all the technical 
terms, in every branch of phyftck and fur- 
gery ; and I believe it will not appear tin*• 
faiisfaSory on the perufal of this, by oh- 
ferving in -what particulars it differs from iv 
every other. My firft view was its eon- 
dfenefs, not infer ting ohfolete words, 
ufed only in a few authors, 
thofe likewife that are ufed by one Jingle 
author, merely on his own authority by 
avoiding all pompous definitions, or giving 
variety of fuch as feem mere conjectures, of 
which there are multitudes to be met with 
in volumnious writers ; by laying afide a$ 
thefe terms that are merely phyfical, and 
.have no relation to furgery, it being calcu- 
lated only for the ufe of Pupils in that art* 
by avoiding all deferiptions of inftruments, 
medicines, or their qualities, unlefs it has 
feme immediate relation to the etymology of 
the word to be explained \ and by thus con- 
tracting it to a fmali volume, the price is 
loWy and the book convenient for the 
pocket which to thofe it is intended for 
are reafenable confiderations. In every one y 
ef thefe articles it differs from moji BifH- 
onaries in ufe amongfi us, as it is not very 
fxpenfive to the buyer, nor in a language 
ufelefs to an Engiifh reader: befides, in 
this volume, you are not obliged frequently 
to put up with the phyfical fenfe of a wordy 
when you are deftrous of the etymology $ 
nor in this are you obliged, as in many 
others, to take derivation on conjefiure, 
that leaks like a thorough inacquaintance of 
the fubjebi or language. If at any time, 
this fcience Jhould be the fubjett of convert 
fation, in which a young furgeon Jhould cor- 
rupt any of his terms, it would make a 
very ill impreffion on the bye-ftander, ac- 
quainted with the language from whence it 
is derived; and by this means, even a profi- 
cient in his buftnefs may he looked on as an 
ignorant quack, from the abufe of the 
i wms he ought to be well acquainted with» vi 
and is what every man of credit Jhould en- 
deavour to avoid. iVhat has been [aid, it is 
prefumed will he a fufficient apology for the 
publication, of what was at Jirfi colie bled 
for amufement only; nor, indeed, would it 
ever have appeared abroad, but at the dejire 
of particular friends. If the manner in 
which it is executed, fcould need no cenfure, 
it is owing entirely to the friendly ajjijiance 
cf a gentleman as unexceptionable as any 
in the phyfical world, whofe kind ajjifiance 
has added much to the advantage of this 
ufeful little Hr all. THE

others, derive this Word from arg Air, and

A P 
two Words in Aorta. The Word is expounded 
by Arijiotle uXXmt Fas : and as the Stomach is 
called the Ventricle, by way of Eminence, this, 
as it is the larged Artery in the Body, is called 
Aorta, the VeJJel', and, according to Martinlus,

a Primitive.

Echo ; and, in Allufion to that, has this phyfical 
Senfe, becaufe it anfwers at a Diilance the Stroke, 
as the other the Sound. 
Apella. One that wants aForelkin, from » non, 
and Fellis, the Skin. Moll of our Lexicons, and 
all our phylkal ones in general, arc led into this 
miftaken Derivation, I believe, from that Ex- 
preflion of Horace, in Satyr. Lib,- I. Eclog, 5. 
- Credat J uda us Apdla, 
Non ego. 
Lamhin, Schaligcr, and with them Cruqnius, In 
his Notes upon that Paffage, are furprized at the 
Abfurdity of thoft who render it circumcifed, and 
are convinced it was the proper Name of a Man, 
Indeed Cicero mentions one Chius Apella', and St, 
Paul, in his firlt Epiftle to the Romans, defires to 
be recommended to Apella, which is a Proof there A P 
A P 
was fuch a Family at Romt. Further, the Deri-

ment.

by numerous in (lances, that there is an acid or far 
line liquor naturally contained in the bowels of 
the earth ; which acid, there mixing with various 
kinds of earthy matters, as a menliruum, changes- 
their natures, or makes diem appear under differ- 2 
ent forms. And, hence, common brimftone, allum 
the native vitriol, &c. feem to have their origin. 
For, by an cxaft fcrutiny and attentive confider- 
ation, it appears, that, when this general acid 
dillblves a certain bituminous earth, it makes 
brimftone ; when a chalky earth, allum ; when 
iron or copper, vitriol, &c. And, accordingly 
by ufing the fame kind of general acid (which 
may be procured by burning brimftone under a 
glafs bell, in the fame manner as nature feems to 
employ it. We can likewife by art produce brim- 
llone, allum, or vitriol, when and where we 
pleafe. And thus, if we could univerfally difeo- 
ver the proceffes and inttruments which Nature 
employs in the production of her effects, -ve ftiould 
have certain rules for imitating her. 
The fecond rule is to gain a habit of transferirng, 
diverAfying, enlarging, and improving an experi- 
ment til) it ends in fome certain difeovery ; either 
of light to the undemanding, or of ufe in life ; 
one of which points out what all juft experiments 
will end in,when duly profecutcd and conndered. 
F. r ur.iuccefsful xper‘me;,ts are no lefs inftruft- 
ing than tnofc that fucceed, which ought to be 
well remarked. The head muft in all places co- 
operate with the hands ; fo that the mind Ihould 
be constantly endeavouring to difeover the caufes 
of failure, as well as of fuccefs. And this is a 
fagacity which may be procured by ufe, and turned 
into a habit of invention and difeovery j, fo that 5 
no fingle experiment fhall be performed, but fome- 
advantage will be immediately derived from it ; 
nor no experiment be made without fome foiid 
grounds of hope for fuccefs. 
The third rule is to profecute experiments in 
an orderly feries, with a view to fome particular 
enquiry of ufe in life ; and to let the enquiry fuit 
the genius and temper of the enquirer; fo as that it 
may be profecuted by him with vigour and pleafure. 
Thus, if any one fhould be averfe to the ufe 
of fire and furnace, he may flill improve chemiftr/ 
and arts, or perform many ferviceablc chemical 
operations, without much apparatus or expence, 
or without the utenfils or inllruments commonly 
made ufe of in that art •, which may therefore 
be praftifed as well in a ftudy or parlour, as in a 
laboratory. And to thofe difpofed to operate in. 
this way may be recommended the bufmefs ®f fer- 
mentation, and concentration of liquors by cold» 
and the profecution of the nature and hiftory of 
cold begun by Mr. Boyle. We might alfo recom- 
mend the extracting of the finer effences of ve- 
getables ; the making of the more noble and fpi- 
rituous infufions, tindlures and elixirs ; the exa- 
mining and tabling the folutive power of water, 
with regard to falts, and of fpirit of. wine, with 
regard to different oils and refins ; the determin- 
ing the force of all the menftruums in the cold ; 
the difcovery of new menftruums, and particularly 
a folvent for the ftooe. Thefe, and many other chemical enquiries, may be profecuted without the 
ufe of fires and furnaces ; and even fuch temper* 
as are more delighted with fpeculation than prac- 
tice, may greatly contribute to the improvement 
of chemiftfy, by forting, ranging, and digefting 
experiments with tables, /hewing what they prove, 
and how far they reach ; how far they fall fhorf, 
and how they may be carried farther ; others 
might to advantage employ themfelves upon draw- 
ing things of ufe in life, from the experiments 
already known and publilhed. And, laftly,others 
might, from a due confideration of experiments, 
deduce new directions and rules of practice for 
producing in a fure and conftant manner much 
greater effeCts than are ufually hoped for. If 
thefe rules are obferved, we may foon hope for 
difcoveries in every branch, which will tend to 
the advantage of focicty in general, and of thf 
difeoverers in particular.

DEFINITION and DESCRIPTION 
O F 
MAN. 
MA N is compounded of a rational foul, and 
of a body rightly framed or difpofed for an 
intimate union with the rational foul. For the 
effence of man wholly confifteth in this union. 
However, we are not now to conlider man in this 
ftate. I only propofe to defcribe his body in its 
natural ftate, as it is organica! and confifung of all 
its parts. 
Very wonderful, indeed, we fhall find the ftruc- 
ture of the human body, if we confider all its parts, 
and the ufe and end for which they were framed, 
a theme by far too copious for one efTty. There- 
fore, I lhall content myfelf with touching on 1/ 
VPQS ths more principal parts. 2 
The parts of the human body arc either “Simiiaf 
or Diifimilar. 
The Similar parts are the bones, griftles, ten- 
dons,'ligaments, fibres, membranes, arteries, veins, 
serves or finews, flclh and ikin ; becaufe they, 
being of the fame fubftance and alike throughout, 
may be divided into pans of the fame nature and 
denomination. 
The bones are the hardeft and molt firm of all 
the fimilar parts ; are in number 304 in the hu- 
man body ; and may be faid to be the principal 
Supports of the other parts. The griftles come 
neared to the bones in folidity and firmnefs, and 
are particularly ferviccable in the formation and 
fupport of the ear. The tendons are the white 
extremities of the mufcles, by which, they are 
joined to the bone. The ligaments, much of the 
lame nature as tendons, ferve tojoin bones to bones, 
fibres arej as it were, the woof of the other parts, and 
being varioully interwove or wound up, form the va- 
rious folid parts of an animal body. The membranes 
are thin broad fubftances covering other parts, as 
the ribs, the bladder, and the ftomach. The arteries 
are channels conveying the vital blood from the 
heart to ail parts of the body. The veins are the 
channels by which the laid blood returns from thofe 
parts to the heart. The nerves or finews carry the 
animal fpirits from the brain and the marrow of 
the back-bone to all parts, and confequently are 
the inftruments of fenfe and motion. The flelh 
and the fkin need no illuftration. But to thefe 
fimilar parts fome anatomifts add alfo the far, nails, 
and hair. 
The Diffimilar parts arc compofed of fevera! 
ftmilar parts; under this divifion, therefore, I fbatt rank the head, neck, breaft, belly, (houlderS,- 
arms, hands, legs, feet, &c. 
The head is the principal part of the human 
body, bccaufe it contains the organ of fenfe and 
motion, and is the houfe and abode of the foul it- 
felf; and here the eyes are placed, as it were, in 
a watch-tower covered with bones, and to I'urvev 
every object. This is divided into the Tea Ip, which 
is hairy, and the face which is fm oth. And 
again, each of thefe are fuhdivided, the fore pare 
of the hairy fcalp to the Sutura Coronalis is called 
the fore part of the head ; that which reached!» 
from the Sutura Lambdoidea to the firft joint of 
the neck, is called the hinder part of the head ,; 
and the middle and gibbous part between bo h 
thefe, is called the crown. The face is corn poll a 
of the. fmooth forehead, which is the upper part, 
and indicates the difpofttion cf the. mind ; and of 
the eyes, noilrils, ears, mouth, and tongue, which 
are the lower parts, and the organs of our fenfes. 
The neck iupports the head, and is the organ by 
which the voice is tuned. Where obferve, that 
thole animals, a crane, a goofe, Cue. that are cre- 
ated with long necks, have the fbrongeft voices, and 
a fifh, which utteis no voice, wan s a neck. In 
the human body, the hind part of the neck is 
called Cervix, and the fore part Guttur, or the- 
throat; a.nd it con lilts of feven joints, which arc 
the upper part of the fpine. in the five part of 
Jf, are two great pipes, whereof one is called the 
Wino-pipe, or rough artery, becauie of its une- 
cjual grilly rings, and ferves to convey the a:r to 
the. lungs, and from thence out of the body ; the 
other inward pipe is the gullet, Kv which the mc*u 
3 and drink is conveyed from the month to the 
ftomach. 
4 
The bread joins below the neck, and contains 
the heart, the lun'gs, and the vital parts. Behind, 
it comprehends the (boulder-blades, the back, and 
twelve joints of the fpine ; from whence there 
proceed feven ribs, encompafling the hollow of the 
bread, reaching to the Sternum, and ending down- 
wards in the griftle, that refembles the figure of a 
iword ; each fide of the bread is fupplicd and 
adorned with a dug or pap, through which the 
God of nature has ordained proper nourilhment 
for new born infants, by the means of a fpongy 
excrefeence, called a nipple ; the pap itlelf is com- 
pofed of a membrane, veffels, kernels, flefh, fat, 
andftin. 
The belly, which is farmed below the breaft, 
has diverfe parts alfo. Its fore pan is called Ab- 
domen, the upper part is the Hypochondrium, and 
its middle is the navel •, beneath are the groins, 
and parts defigned for generation. The upper part 
of the abdomen, reaching up to the midriff, is the 
fiomach, which lies crofs-ways, and receiving the 
food from the mouth, through the gullet, digelieth 
it into Chyle, and afterwards fends the purer part 
of the lain Chyle into the Vena Cava by the lub- 
cjavial branches of the laid vein. 
To the ftuulder-bhides are joined the (boulder?, 
and to then*, the arms, which from their beginning 
at the extremity of the collar-bones, to the finger’s 
ends, contain three principal parts. The arm con- 
lilis of the Lacertus, which is the part above the 
elbow, and has but one bone ; the Cubitus, which 
is the part from the elbow to the ;vrifi, and con- 5 
tains two bones, the Ulna, which is the lower, and 
the Radius, which is the upper ; and the hand, 
which alfo confifts of three parts, viz. the wriit, 
the metacarpum, or part between the wrift and 
fingers, and the fingers. Thefe fingers h*ve each 
of them three joints. 
Under the fhouldcrs backward, are the lo:ns, 
and near to them the Os Sacrum, dillinguifhed, 
as it were, into five bones, having on each fide of 
the bone Ilium, jetting out like a bow, and the 
hip-bone, and under thefe the buttocks. 
This whole compofition is fupportcd by the leg, 
which is itlelf compcfed of the thigh, the fhin, 
and the foot. The thigh is that part above the 
knee, joined to the hip-bone, and contains but one 
bone. The Ihin is the part from the knee-pan to 
the ankle. The ufc of the knee-pan is to prevent 
the leg.from bending forward. From the ankle is 
contained the foot, which is made up of the heel, 
the foie, and five toes. 
Thefe are the external parts of a man's bodv, 
and which is thought abiblutely necefiary to be 
premifsd before we enter into its anatomiwt 
ihrtf&ure. A

OF ALL 
The Parts of the Human Body, 
Anatomy (derived ofof uuttrifx.ua, 
to cut in pieces) implies a curious, neat, and 
dextrous difiedion, or taking animal bodies to 
pieces, by a proper inflrument, in order to difeo- 
ver their flruc'ture and component parts ; for the 
improvement of the pradice of Surgery, Phyfic, 
and Natural Philosophy. This art is divided into 
two parts, viz. (i.) Olleology, or the dodrine of 
the bones in general ; and (2.) Sarcology, which 
treats of all the foft parts of the body. 
And both of thele are lubdivided into feveral 
other branches. Olleology is divided into three 
parts, viz. (1.) Olkogony, which treats of the 
origin of the bones, ot what matter they confift, 
and of the condition of them when joined toge- 
ther, in the fame manner as they txifteci in the 7 
body. (2.) Oleography, which teaches the know- 
ledge ot the fabric of the bones, or the ftrudture 
and compages of a fkeleton, and the diversity of 
parts in the bone itfelf now perfect. (3.) Synos- 
teography, which fhews the method of connedfing 
one bone to another, with motion or without, 
with a cartilage dr without it. 
Sarcology has alfo a threefold dlvifion, viz, 
(1.) Myology, which treats of the mufcle. (2.) 
Splanchnology, which exhibits a defcription of 
the vifcera or bowels, and the great organs of ani- 
mal life, as the lungs, brain,- ftomach, &c. ex- 
plaining their nature, connexion, fue, &c. (3.^ 
Angiology, which teaches the dodtrine of the fe- 
veral vefl'els in a human body, as the arteries, 
veins, &c. fhcwing their nature and ufes. All 
which I fhall give a concife account of in their 
proper order. 
Ofteogony being a defcription of all the changes 
a bone undergoes, from its firft conception in the 
womb, to its laft ftate of perfedfion in the adult 
fkeleton, it naturally falls under the following con- 
fidcrations, viz. (1.) The definition of a bone; 
which is faid to be the hardeft, whiteft, and lighteft 
part of the body, inflexible and infenfible, confin- 
ing of a complex fubftance of a vafcular, fibrous, 
membranous, and cartilaginous nature. (2.) The 
genefis of a bone ; this confifteth of various Hates 
and gradations from its origin to its full perfedtion. 
For (1.) the firft ftate of a bone is that of a terre- 
ftial nutrious fluid matter flowing among the fluids 
In ovo, defigned lor the formation of the other 
parts of the body, (2.) The parts of this original 
earthy fluid, at a propertime,b/gin tocohere, unite, 
and thus form themlelves into very fmall or fine ca- 8 
pilbmsRts, threads, or fibres) foft or parous, whkh. 
being filled with a lympha of the fame nature,, 
they begin to increafe, harden, and grow dole to 
one another, (3.) The fibres, thus formed, ftrike 
into various directions, and being interwoven in. 
the manner of a web, they conftitute a fort of 
hard, white, broad, elaftic fubftance, called a mem- 
brane. (4.) Thefe membranes, as their fibres 
become gradually hard and.dry, begin to confoli- 
date and form hard,,thin, white fubftances,which 
lie on one another in the manner of Lamellae, or 
thin plates, between which run a great number of 
vefiels, carrying fluids proper for moifture and 
nourilhment ; which, all together; conftitute or 
make up the white, hard, friable, and elaftic fub- 
ftance, called a Cartilage, (5.) Since the largeft: 
artery hath the greateft puliation, and this being 
in the middle of the bone, it will then firft become 
a Cartilage, which, by degrees, grows harder and 
more compad, .till at laft it is perfectly oflified, or 
arrived to the proper confiftence and firmnefs of a 
bone; and the blood-vefiels,-. being now com- 
prefied on all fides, bring no more blood than is 
fuflicient to fupply the place of the decaying par- 
tides ; they bavin? now obtained their utmoft ex- 
tent, hardnefs, and folidity. And hence, fines 
bones begin to cliffy in the middle parts firft, it is 
eafy to underftand they will of confequence be 
there both hsrdcft and finalleft; while, on tab 
contrary, they will be more extended towards the 
extremities, and of a more folt and cartalaginous 
nature. Thus much for Ofteogony. 
The next thing I (hall give an account of is 
Ofteography, which teaches the fabric, of the 
bones, or the ftrudure and compages of a fkels- ton. A fkeleton is a fyftem of bones joined toge- 
ther in their refpedtive places, and as they exited 
in the body j after all the flLfh is boiled off and 
cleared. For a right underftanding of this, it will 
be neceflary to mention the feveral affedlions of a 
bone, and the manner of their articulations. The 
affections of a bone are of two forts, viz. Cavities, 
and Prominencies. The cavities of bones are deep 
or fballow. A deep cavity is called Cotyle, from 
the Greek Cavitas. The fuperficial one is 
called Glene, from the Greek The promi - 
nenciesof a bone are of two forts, viz. (i.) An 
apophyjis, or a protuberance made by the fibres of 
a bone ; and, (2.) an epiphyfis, cr a fmall bone 
fet on the extremity of a bigger, which in time 
unite in one. Both of them are ufually on the 
extremity of the bones, and ferve either for the 
infertion of mufcles, or the articulation of the 
bones. The articulations of the bones are of three 
kinds, viz. (1.) Diarthrofis, where there is a ma- 
nifeft motion. (2.) Synchondrofis, which is by 
means of a cartilage, and with a fraall and ob- 
feure motion. (3.) Synaithrofis, without any mo- 
tion at all,—Diarthrofis is again of three forts, 
(1.) Enarthrolis, which is when a large round 
herd of a bone is received into a large cavity, as 
of the thigh-bone in the Ifchium. (a.) Arthro- 
dia, which is when a flat plane head of a bone is 
received into a (hallow cavity, as of the articula- 
tion cf the Humeris with the Scapula. (3.) Gin- 
glymas, which is when the bones articulated mu- 
turally receive and are received by each other, as 
that cf the Humerus and Cubit.—Synchondrofis, 
is when the extremities of two bones are joined 
together by means of an intervening cartilage, as 
9 IO 
in the vertebrae, &c. where though the motion of 
all is manifeft, yet that of any two is fcarce to be, 
perceived.—Synorthrofis is alfo of three kinds,, 
(i.) Harmonia, which is by a (imple contaft of the 
extremities o( bones without any mutual ingrefs, 
and is tLfigned by a right or oblique line, (i ) 
Sutura, which Is when two bones are mutually in- 
dented into each other, and look like the teeth of 
a (aw, as in the articulations of the bones of the 
Ikuli. (3.) Gomphofis, or Gomphoma, is when 
one bone is inlertud and (aliened into another, as 
the teeth in the jaw-bones. In the Skeleton, I 
ihall take a view of the bones in the following or- 
der, viz,, of the Skull, the Spine, the Thorax, the 
Pelvis, the Arms, and the Legs. The bones of 
the Skull are fix, viz. (1 ) The Os Frontis,which 
forms the upper part of the orbits, or two fockets 
where the eyes are placed, and the forehead ; and 
joins the bones of the Sinciput and Temples, by 
what is called the Coronal Suture. (2.) and (3.) 
Phe Parietalia, or the two bones of the Sinciput, 
which makes the fides of the Ikuli, and are joined 
to one another in the crown of the head by the 
Sutura Sagittalis. (4,) and (5.). The Ofia Tem- 
porum, fituated in the lower parts of the fides of 
the ikuli, and are joined to the Parietalia by the 
Sutura Squamots. (6.) The Os Occipitis, which 
joins theOffa Parietalia by the Sutura Lambdoidalis,. 
The lower parts of each temporal bone be- 
ing thick and broad, is called Os Petrofum ; 
each alfo have three procelLs ; viz; (1.) The 
Zygomatic, which runs forw rd, and unites 
with the procefs of the upper jaw-bone, making 
the bridge called Zygoma under the ear. (2.) 
The Mamillary or Maftoide procefs, fituated be- hind the paffagc of the ear. (3.) The Styfiform 
procefs, which Itrikes down from the bafts of the 
Skull, like the end of a quill. There are two 
bones common to the Ikull and upper-j <w, viz. 
(1.) The Sphsenoides, which is fi mated in the 
middle of the Ikull’a bafis ; on its lower fid-e it has 
-five apophyfes, two called the Pterigoides, or 
wing-like .precedes ; two which make the lower 
and internal part of the orbit of the eyes, and 
the fifth, a very fmall one received in a cavity at 
the farther end of the Vomer. On its infide it 
has four precedes called Clinoides, which form a 
cavity, in the middle called Sella Turcia. (2.) 
The Os Ethmoidcs, which is fituated in the mid- 
dle of the bafis of the forehead bone ; in the mid- 
dle of it, is a fmall thin procefs called 'Crifta Galli, 
from its likenefs to the comb of a cock. This 
bone has its name from the number of fmall holes 
in it, which make it like a fieve. From its under 
fide there goes a thin bone, which divides the ca- 
vity of the nofe into two parts, called Nolirils ; 
the lower edge of this bone is grooved with the 
Vomer. On each fide this partition are the OlTa 
Spongiofa ; the two external places of which make 
part of the orbit at the greater Canthus, or cor- 
ner of the eye. 
There are eleven bones in the upp«r-jaw, five 
on each fide, and one in the middle, viz. The 
II 
Os Nafi, or bone of the nofe.—The Os Unguis, 
—The Os Mali.—The Os Maxillare, or jaw-bone. 
—The Os Palati, and the Vomer or fliare-bone. 
The bones of the nofe, though they be very 
fmail, are of a folid fubftance, and of a pyramidal 
figure; they are all placed on the upper part of 
the nofe, and compofe whai is called the Bridge. \Z 
Thefe bones are terminated above by the tranfver- 
fal future, whereby they are joined with the Os 
Frontis, and on the fides of the two harmonia’s,— 
i. e. one of thofc futures joins them together, and 
is in the middle of the nofe, and the other unites 
them with the two jaw-bones. 
The French call Os Unguis two bones of the 
bigncfs and figure of a nail, placed at the great 
corner the eye ; they are of a thin fubflancc 
like a fcale, and the fmallefl bones of the upper- 
jaw. Thefc bones touch four others, the Os 
Frontis, the OsNafi, the Jaw-bone, and that part 
of the Os Ethmoides which forms th« orbit of this 
eye ; though they bold fall neither of thofe bones, 
and are but very feldom found in a fkcleton, being 
eafily 101 l in the boiling. 
The bones of the cheeks, which are the fifth and 
fixth bones, are very large, and of an hard and 
folid fubltance ; their figure is triangular, their 
middle part is a little prominent outward, and 
round like an apple. Thefe bones compote the 
higheft part of the check, and the lower part of 
the orbit, and are fattened to the Os Frontis, the 
Spbaenoides, the Jaw-bone, and the Os Premium : 
each of them hath three proccfles, one forms an 
era ncnce, which rifing upwards, makes the little 
corner of the eye ; another, -advancing towards 
the nofe, makes the greateft part of the lower eye- 
brow of the orbit; and the third, joining with a 
prominence of the Os Petrofum/helps toward» the 
formation of the Zigoma. 
The jaw-bones are the greatett of all the bones 
of the face, and the moft fpongy : they make 
fome part of the cheek contribute to the formation 
tf the inferior part of the orbit; eompofe tho l3 
gVeateft part of the palate ; and articulate all the 
upper teeth. They are fituated on the fide, and 
under the bones of the Os Malae, poflefling the infe- 
rior part of the upper jaw, and they touch the bones 
of the nofe, the palace, the Os Mala, and thofc 
of the orbits. 
The two bones of the palate, which are the 
ninth and tenth bones of the upper jaw, are fitu- 
ated at the bottom of the palate, and make the 
deepeft part of the roof of the mouth : they arc 
joined together by the future of the palate, which 
advancing forward near the Dentes Incifores, unite 
alfo the two jaw-bones. They are likewife faf- 
tened to the Apophyfes, Pterigoides, by the Spha:- 
noidal Suture. 
The bone that divides the noftrils into two, is 
called the Plough-bone, from its likenefs to the 
Coulter of a plough ; it is the eleventh bone of 
the upper jaw, is placed in the middle above the 
palate, is hard and fmall, is a lingle bone, and is 
joined with the Os Ethmoides and Sphaenoides, 
which have both fmall emincncics that are received 
in the cavities of the plough-bone, and which 
thereby ftrengthen it in his pofition. 
The lower jaw confifts of two bones until the 
feventh year of age, after which they turn into 
one, joining together in their anterior and middle 
part by Symphyfis without a medium. They fervc 
for a balls to fixteen teeth articulated into them ; 
their fubllance is very hard, that they may be 
ilrong enough to bite and chew. 
The teeth, defined by anatomifts, are fmall hard 
bones, white and fmoorh, articulated in the jaws 
by Gomphofig, and are of the following lores, 
(i.) The Incifores, fo called, becawfe they cut ’ *4, 
the meat like a knife ; are eight, four ill each 
jaw, placed before the reft outwardly, and in the 
middle of the others. Their outward furface is 
like an arch, and the anterior is hollow $ they arc 
(harper and (horter than the reft, and each hath 
but one fmgle root, which terminates in a point. 
(2.) The-Canini or'Dog-Teeth, Co called, becaufe 
they break the hardeft bodies ; there are two in 
each jaw, one on each fide of the Incifore* ; they 
are thick, ftrong and folid, fattened in their Al- 
veoli by fingle roots, like the Incifores, but 
deeper j for they exceed all the reft in length. 
The upper dog-teeth are called Eye-Teeth, becaufe 
part of the nerve, which move the eye, is rami- 
fied or branched towards them. (3.) The Molares 
or Grinders, fo called, becaufe with thefe we 
grind, as it were, our aliments, to a (late fit for 
digeilion in the ftomach : there are twenty of 
them, ten in each jaw, and five on each fide. 
They are large and hard, and increafe in bulk, 
according to their deeper fituation in the mouth ; 
they have divers roots, which ferVe the better to 
fallen them in their Alveoli. The lower grinders 
have but two or three roots, and the upper ones 
three or four ; becaufe thofe upper ones being in 
an hanging pofition above, have occafion for a 
great quantity to keep them fixed and firm. From 
the bones of the Cranium, I defeend gradually to 
thofe of the Spine. 
The Spine is a complex of many bones articu- 
lated together, to ferve for habitation and rara- 
pire to the marrow. Thele fmall bones are called 
Vertebra;, from Verto, to turn, becaufe by their 
means, the body turns fevcral ways ; of thefe there 
arc reckoned feven in the neck, twelve in the back, *5 
five in the loins, fix in the Os Sacrom (which coa- 
lelce in adults, and make but one large triangular 
bone) and four in the Os Coccygis. Each of tho 
Vertebra hath its body in its internal part, where- 
with they fupport one another ; they have alia 
great foramen through which the Medulla Spina- 
lis paffes; all three forts of procefles, four oblique, 
two tranfverfe,. and one acute ; and all five epi- 
phyfes or appendages, viz. two at their body* two 
at the extremities of their tranfverfe procefles, and 
one at the end of their acute procefs. They are 
likevvife all pierced through on their fides for the 
the nerves that come through them y. 
i. e. that two vertebra make an hole between them, 
but one half of the hole appearing in each of 
them, the other half being hidden in the cartilage, 
which ties two vertebra* together ; if they arc 
not perforated in* the m’ddle part, it is becaufe 
fuch perforation would weaken them too much. 
Thb end of tbefe bones always bends inward, 
that it may be no inconvenience in fetting ; but 
they draw backwards a little for the better extru- 
sion of the excrements, as they do in women at 
the time of their delivery,-.to facilitate a pailago 
to the infant. 
We come now to the-Thorax or Bread ; its figure 
is oval, efpecially when the Diaphragma moves 
downwards ; it is terminated above by the Cla- 
vicles, before by the Sternum, behind by the Ver- 
tebras'of the back ;on the fide by twenty-four 
ribs, and below by the cartilages of the ColKe 
Noth®, and the cartilage Xiphoides. The larger ' 
and deeper the cavity of the Thorax is, the parts 
contained therein move with greater facility, and 
we arc fuppofed to live longer. Itis composed of x6 
the following hones ; (i.) The ribs, which ar* 
iwemy-four in number, and of two forts, viz. fe" 
ven true ribs, which have their cartilaginous ex” 
tremities inferted into the Finus of the Sternum » 
and five falfe ribs, which are fhorter and fofter» 
and iheir extremities tied one to another ; except 
the lad, which is tied to the midriff, or elfe to 
the defending oblique mufcle. (2.) The Ster- 
num ; in adults, it confiOs of one bone, but in 
infants, of feveral, according to their age ; many 
of the learned are of opinion that it never exceeds 
fix; though others presend to have found eight 
in fome infants, which, by growing together, 
are frequently reduced to four ; and commonly 
to three. The Sternum is all that anterior part of 
the Thorax, which above touches the Clavicles, 
and ends below at the Cartilage Xiphoides, and 
laterally both on the right and left is joined to the 
ends of the ribs before. Its body proceeds for- 
ward, but bends towards the ribs, in order to 
fcmi the round and oval figure of the breaff, on 
which it appears, as if couched. (3.) The Cla- 
viculae or Channel-bones ; thefe fhut the fuperior 
part of the Thorax, and fallen the Sternum to the 
(houldeis. There is one on each fide, and they 
.both have a tranfverfe fituation at the lower part 
of the neck, and upper part of the bread:, a little 
above the firlf rib. Their fubilance is thick, but 
porous and fungous ; whence it is, that they are 
often fractured, and, when fratfured, fooner re- 
united than any other bone. Their figure is like 
a C) convex omwardlyltowards the neck, and a lit- 
tle concave inwardly, that the veflels under them 
may nor fuller compreflion. The Clavicles help 
the cillerent motions of the arms, which move calidr backwards and forwards, beCaufe fuppoitefl 
on thefe bones as on a bafis ; they are like wife of 
great ufe to binder the arms from too great an 
extenfion forwards.~(4.) The Scapula? or Shoul- 
der-blades ; thefe are two large and broad bones 
in form of a fcalenous triangle ; they are fituated 
on each fide of the upper and back part of the 
Thorax. The broad end is called the Balls, and 
each hath three proceffes ; one running along the 
middle, called the Spine, the end of which is 
called Acrmion, nnd receives the Clarities : the 
fecond is a little below, called Coracoides, from its 
likenefs to a crow’s bill: the third is called Cer- 
vix, and receives the head of the Huinerus, or 
Arm-bone, in its Sinus. 
The Pelvis or Bafon of the Tkeleton, which is 
formed by the following bones, viz. (i.) The Os 
Slcrom, and (2.) the Os Coccygis on the hinder 
parr, both- already mentioned. (3.) The Ofla 
Innominata, or namelefs bones ; which, in infants 
confift of three feparate bones, but in adults they 
unite, and make but one bone, in each of which 
they diftinguilh three parts, viz. (1.) The Oa‘ 
Ilium ; it is fo called, becaufe it-contains the 
inteftine, the Ilium being the greateft of the 
three; it is articulated with the - Os’ Sacrum by 
Ginglymos, lengthened by a cartilage, and is 
a very ftrong membranous ligament, Its figure 
is femicircular, having -two furfaces, the one in- 
ternal, filled with one of the Mufculi Flexores, 
(2.) The Os Ilchium or Coxendix ; in it there are 
three parts to be confidered. Its fuperior, which 
makes the greateft pan of the Cotyla ; its anterior, 
which makes the greateft part of the Foramen 
Ovale ; *and the inferior, in which two ptocefles 
*7' are obfervcd ; the one pofterior, called the Spine 
Procefs, and the other anterior and inferior.-**» 
There is alfo feen a Sinus or Cleft, which gives 
paflage to the Obturator Internus. (3.) The Os 
Pubis ; this is fituated at the middle and interior 
part of the trunk. Its anterior part is joined by 
means of a cartilage with its fellow ; its pofterior 
forms one part of the Cotvla.—Thefe three are 
joined together by Cartilages, which remain 
fuch until the tenth or twelfth year of age, but 
grow drier with time, till they become fo dry, 
that they feem to make bat one bone with the 
others in adult perfons. 
In the armare the following bones, viz. (1.) 
The Humerus or Shoulder bone; it is long and 
round ; it hath an internal cavity all its length 
which contains the marrow : its figure is not ab- 
solutely flrait, but a little hollow on the infide, 
and raifed on the outfide, for the ftrengthening of 
it in its atftions. This bone is articulated at both 
i8 
its ends ; the upper end with the Scapula by Ar- 
throdia, and the lower pan by Ginglymus with 
the Cubitus, and by Arthrodia with the Radius. 
It is alfo joined by Arthrodia with'the Radius, hav- 
ing a prominence at its end, which is received 
into the cavity placed at the end of the Radius. 
This articula ion caufes the motions of the Cubitus 
inwards and outwards. 
(2.) The Ulna, a long and hard bone of the 
Cubitus or fore arm ; it reaches from the elbow 
to the wrill : at its upper end it hath two precedes, 
which are received into the fore and hind Sinus’s 
of the extremity of the Humerus ; the external 
or hindmoft is the biggeft and longed-, called 
Olecranon, and makes the Iharp point oi the el- bow. At its lower end it is articulated with the 
Radius, and the bones of the vvrift. 
19 
(3 ) The Radius of this accompanies the Ulna 
from the elbow to the vvrift. In its upper end it 
receives the outer protuberance of the Humerus in 
a fmall cavity which receives the end ot the Ulna ; 
and, in its extremity, it has two Sinus’s, which 
receive the bones of the wrifk 
(4.) The bones of the Carpus or vvrift ; they 
are little bones, and differ as to their figure and 
bignefs ; are eight in number, placed in two rows, 
four in each row. The firft row is articulated 
with the Radius, the fecond with (5.) the bones 
of the Metacarpus, or back of the hand. Thefe 
are four Jong, flender, and unequal bones, each 
of them having a cavity that contains a marrow. 
Thefe tour bones are joined with the Carpus, by a 
ftrong connection, by means of many cartalagi-- 
nous ligaments, which allows them but an ob- 
feure motion ; and with the fingers by Arthrodia ; 
each of them having a round head at their end, 
which enters into the Glenoide cavity, placed at 
the end of the firft bone of the fingers. 
(6.) The bones of the fingers: they are fifteen, 
three in each finger, placed in three ranks, called 
Phalanxes, from their refemblance to the ranks in 
battle-array. 
The firft rank is of Inrger bones than the fe- 
cond, and the fecond than the third, which is the 
fmalleft, and whofe extremities end in a femi-cir- 
cle or crefcent. 
The figure of thefe bones is hollow on the infide 
for the convenience of flexion, convex on the out- 
flde for flrength fake, and a little flattened on the infide,-that they might not hurt the tendons of 
cf'the Hexores,-and for the better bending the 
fill. 
They'are joined together by Ginglymus, all of 
them having both little bones, and little cavities, 
which reciprocally receive one another ; their ar- 
ticulation withsthe Metacarpus is by Arthrodia. 
Each finger has likewife ligaments the whole 
length, on the infide, and thefe ligaments tie 
thefe bones mutually together. 
The firlf finger is called the Thumb, and 
is bigger and llronger than the reft. The fecond ’ 
is called the Index, becaufe we make ufe of it' 
when we point at any thing. The third is called 5 
the Middle Finger, by reafon of its fituation, and * 
is the longed of them all. The fourth is called < 
Annularis, becaufe the ring is worn upon it; and 
the fifth Auricularis, becaufe, being little and 
pointed, Tome commonly ufe it to cleanfe their" 
ears of futdes. 
I lhall conclude this Treatife with an account of 
the bones of the lower limb, which are thole of 
the leg ; they are very analagous to thofe of the 
arm ; for 
(i.) In the thigh there is one large bone an- 
fwering to the Humerus. At its upper end it has 
th ee Epiphyfes ; the firft is the large round head, 
by which it is atticulatcd in the Acetabulum of the • 
Coxendix ; the ft-cond is called the Trochanter 
Major, and the third the Trochanter Minor. The 
lower end of this bone is articulated by the Gin- 
glymus, with 
(2.) The Tibia ; this is the largeft bone of the 
leg, hollow within, its whole length, to contain 21 
the marrow, (ituatcd on the infide of the leg, ar- 
ticulated at both its ends by Ginglymus, above, 
with the Femur ; and below, with one of the 
bones of the Tarfus, called Aftragalus. It is alfo 
joined at both its ends, but laterally by Arthrodia, 
with 
(3.) The Fibula or Perone ; thefe two, i. e. the 
Tibia and the Fibula, anfwer to the Ulna and 
Radius of the cubit ; and their articulations with 
each other are much the fame.. 
(4.) The Patella or Knee- pan ; it is a little 
bone, and lies under the tendons of the mufcles 
which extends the leg, and ferves as a pulley to fa- 
cilitate their motion. 
(5.) The Tarfus ; it is the firft and largeft part 
of the foot ; compofed of feven bones, four of 
which have diftimft names, and the three others 
only that of Cuneiformia. 
' The firft is Aftragalu.-, articulated under the 
bones of the leg, and which has fix feveral fur- 
faces. 
The fecond is Calcaneum or Heel-bone, the 
greateft and moft porous of all the bones of the 
Tarfus, and fituated at the pofterior part of the 
foot. 
In this hone the tendon Achilles, the biggeft 
and ftrongeft of all the tendons, is inferted. It 
is doubly joined with the Aftragalus, and alfo by 
a flat head with the Os Culoides. 
The third is ihe Os Scaphoides or Naviculare, 
from its refemblance to a litile boat ; it has a 
pretty large cavity that goes from one of its ends 
to the other, for the infertion of the large head of 
the Aftragalus, which joins them both rtrongly 22 
together ; and to the three protuberances) found 
on the other fide of this cavity, the three laft bones 
of the Tarfus are articulated. 
The Os Cuboides is the fourth bone of the 
Tarfus, and is fituated before the Calcaneum ; to 
which it is joined by an unequal furface, and ar- 
ticulated with the feventh bone of the Tarfus, 
whofe fifth, fixth, and feventh bones are called 
Cuneiformia, becaufe they have the figure of a 
wedge that cleaves wood. 
Thefe three bones, although the fame in figure, 
differ moreover in magnitude , for one of them is 
greater than. the. reii, another of a middle, fize,, 
and the other is the lead of all. They are all three 
articulated with the Os Scaphoides by one of their 
ends ; and by the other, they do one of them 
fuppon one of the bones of the Mctatarfus, the 
two others being fupponed by the Os Cuboides. 
(6.) The Metatarfus or back of the foot ; it 
conlills of five bones, fituated fideways to one 
another, for the fuftaining each of them a toe ; 
they are compa&ly joined together at that end 
where they are united with the Tarfus, but they 
feparate from one another in the middle, for the 
infertion of the Mafculi Interoflei. 
They are convex outwardly, hollow within, 
long and llender, and end with a little head, which* 
entering the cavity at the end of the firft Phalanx 
of the toes, unite them together by Arthrodia. 
They differ in magnitude, like the bones of the 
Tarfus, and have at their flenderell end an head 
covered with a little cartilage, for, the freer mo- 
tion of thqjoes. (7) The hones of the toes; there are fourteen» 
two to the great toe, and three for each of the 
four others, dlftributed into three phalanxes of 
ranks, like thofe of the fingers 
Thofe of the firft order or rank, are greater 
than thofe of the fecond j thofe of the fecond are 
iefs, andfoof the reft» 
They are of the fame figure as thofe of the 
hand, convex without, and concave within ; and 
«re articulated with the Metatarfus by Arthrodia 
and by Ginglymus, with one another. 
(8.) The Olfa Sefamoidea, like grains of Sefa* 
mum ; their number is uncertain, although wc 
commonly count twelve of them in each hand, 
and the fame in each foot: thofe bones, fmall 
as they are, not only ferve to ftrengthen the joints, 
and hinder luxation, but their principal ufe is to 
ferve as pullies to the tendons of the mufcles which 
go to the fingers, in order to keep them in their 
due places, and hinder them from falling upon 
the joint.
