XLXplain the Os Frontis, or bone of the forehead. The numbers apply equally to either figure; and every number wanting in the firft figure, muft be fought for in the fecond. 1. The Superciliary Ridges, on which the eye brows are placed, and which form the frontal finufes. The ikin is very firmly attached to the bone, all along this ridge; and the Frontal Mufcles arife here. The many fmall dots, which are feen all along this ridge, are the marks of many little arteries, entering here to nourifh the bone. 2. Points to that hole which is called the Superciliary Hole, for it permits the fmall Superciliary Artery and Nerve to come out from the focket of the eye to B turn Jl I0 OF THE BONES. turn upwards upon the forehead, where they take the names of Frontal Arterj and Nerve. On the one fide it is a fair round hole, on the other fide it is a notch only. 3. The two Internal Angular Processes. 4. The two External Angular Processes. 5. The Hollow behind the External Angular Procefs, in which the Temporal Mufcle lies. 6. The Nasal Process ; Handing up fharp and rough, betwixt the two internal angular proceffes. 7.

The Mouth of the Frontal Sinus ; where it opens into the Nofe. 9. —is to be found on Figure II. only, and marks the Spine, or Ridge to which the falx, or perpendicular partition of the Dura Mater is fixed; and (a) fhows the groove, in which the ridge very generally terminates. ic. The two Orbitary Plates; which are thofe two thin parts of the bone, which extend over the eye, fo as to form the roof for the eye, and the floor for the fore lobes of the brain; and it is by the continual preflure betwixt thefe two parts, that the Orbitary Proceffes become fo extremely thin, that they are quite tranfparent. z (J>) Marks BOOK FIRST, PLATE SECOND. II (b) Marks the fpace or diftance betwixt the two Orbitary Processes ; which fpace is occupied by the (Ethmoid Bone, which thus lies over the root of the Nofe. 11.

The Spinous Process ; or largeft and moft pointed corner of the Parietal Bone. 5. The Radiated Surface, upon which the great Temporal Mufcle lies; (a) mark- ing that ridge of the bone, which divides it into two parts, and beyond which the origin of the Temporal Mufcle does not extend. 6. The place where the Artery of the Dura Mater firft makes its impreffion, t>i%. at that fharp corner of the bone, which ftioots down into the temple. N. B. The only hole, which belongs to the Parietal Bone, cannot be feen in this view, but is to be found in the firft plate. FIGURES IV. and V. .EjXplain the Os Occipitis. It is here fliown in two oppofite points of view, from within, and from without; the letters and figures apply to either figure ; and the fourth figure naturally takes the lead, as the defcription of the Occipital Bone al- ways begins with the external furface. Figure IV. The outer furface. 1. The BOOK FIRST, PLATE SECOND. 13 1. The Upper Transverse Spine, formed for the implantation of the Trapezius and Complexus ; or produced, according to fome, by the adion of thefe great mufcles. 2. The Smaller and Lower Spine, formed by the Redi Mufcles;—fmall mufcles which come up from the firft Vertebra to lay hold on the Occiput. 3. The Perpendicular Spine, which divides the mufcles of the oppofite fides from each other ; and by this croffing, thefe two fpines are named, 1:1 general terms, the Crucial Spines. 4. The Great Tuberosity, fometimes called the Spinous Procefs of the Occipital Bone. («) The Cuneiform Procefs, which meets the Os Sphaenoides.

(d) The Hole for the 9th, or Lingual, pair of Nerves. fe) The fmaller Hole behind the Condyle, for the paffage not of any nerve, but of a cervi- cal vein going in towards the Great Lateral Sinus. In Figure V. is explained the inner furface of the OccipitdpBone ; and the figure* are continued, that the defcription may go on ftill in the fame order. }. Is the ridge to which the Tentorium, or membrane which fupports the brain, and efends the Cerebellum, is fixed. 6. The two furrows, in which lie the Right and Left Lateral Sinufes, making this broad groove. 7. The two hollows for lodging the backmoft lobes of the brain, above the place of the Tentorium or fupporting membrane. 2 8. Two J4 OF THE BONES. 8. Two fimilar hollow:-, for lodging the two lobes of the Cerebellum, below the place of the Tentorium or crofs membrane. 9. The mark of a fmall falx or procefs of the Dura Mater ; which is like the great one, and like it contains a fmall finus or vein in it, the groove of which fmall funis is eafily feen here. (a) The Cuneiform Procefs. (c) The Foramen Magnum. (d) The hole for the ninth pair of Nerves. (/) The hollow or thimble-like cavity, in which the end of the Lateral Sinus lies ; for at this point the finus turns fuddenly round, efcapes from the fcull, and getting down into the neck, lofes the name of Sinus, and takes that of Internal Jugular Vein. (V) There was left fticking to the end of this bone a fragment of the Sphoenoid bone, fo that at this point the Cuneiform proceffes of the Occipital and Sphoenoid bones are fo united, that to feparate them (in the adult at leaftj, we muft break them ; and in breaking thefe bones, the great cell of the Spcenoid bone, or part of it, ftuck to the Cuneiform procefs of the Occipital bone ; and this cell is marked (g).

HxplAins much of the difficult Anatomy of the Scull; for thefe bones, the Temporal, CEthmoid, Sphoenoid. and Upper Jaw Bones, have many curious and intricate parts. FIGURES I. and II. Hxplain the Temporal Bone ; and now again the letters and numbers belong in common to both figures; to Figure I. which explains all the parts that are upon the outfide of the Temporal Bone, and alfo to Figure II. which explains all that fide of the Temporal Bone which is towards the brain. The Great Divisions of the Temporal Bone, are; (a) The fquamous, or thinner part, forming the Squamous or Scaled Suture. (F) The Pars Petrofa, or Rock Part, which is, indeed, in the child, a diftind bone, (c) The Occipital Angle, or that corner of the bone, which is joined to the Os- Occipitis, by the Additamen- tum Suturse Squamofae. The I ft OF THE BONES. The Processes of the Temporal Bone are, i . The Zygomatic Process, ftretching forwards to meet that of the cheek bone. 2. The Styloid Process, ftanding downwards over the throat, to give origin to ma- ny of the mufcles of the throat. 3. The Vaginal Process, which is a kind of rough rifing at the root of the Sty- loid Procefs. 4. The Mastoid or Mamillary Process, which is not formed in the child; which confifts of cells ; it is felt immediately behind the ear, belongs to that organ, and is perforated (fo it is propofed at leaft) in certain kinds of deafnefs. 5. The Auditory Process, which is 'named a procefs, becaufe it is in the child a diftind part, and ftill is in the adult (as reprefented here) a prominent ring. The Holes of the Temporal Bone relate chiefly to the Ear. 1. (d) Marks the Meatus Auditorius Externus, the outer Auditory hole, upon which the drum of the ear is braced down. 2. (/) The Internal Auditory Hole, or Meatus Auditorius Internus, by which the Auditory Nerve has accefs to the Ear. 3. (f) A fmall hole for admitting a delicate thread-like nerve, which returns from without BOOK FIRST, PLATL THIRD. I 7 without into the Cranium again, and joins the Portio Dara, or hard part of the Auditory Nerve while it is going along the paffages within the Ear. 4. (g) The Stylo-Mastoid Hole; which has its name, from its being at the root of the Styloid and Maftoid proceffes ; it gives paffage to the Portio Dura, or that fmall hard Nerve, which accompanying the Auditory Nerve, goes along wTith it into the paffage of the Ear; but, while the Portio Mollis, or proper Auditory Nerve re- mains within the Ear, this Portio Dura, a diftind Nerve, and deftined for the face,. comes out by the Stylo-Mastoid Hole, under the ear, and fpreads upon the cheeks 5. (fc) Marks the ragged end of the Petrous Portion. The bony part of that canal, named the Eustachian Tube ends here; but the Tube is chiefly Cartilaginous, and therefore in this the dried bone, its openings appear quite irregular and rough; and when the ftudent looks for the Euftachian Tube, he finds nothing but con- fufed and ragged openings. The mouth of the Euftachian Tube, as it appears when dried, is feen in its right place, Vid. PI. VI. 6. (i) The hole for the Carotid Artery is alfo to be looked for at this point, though it cannot be feen in this particular view, unlefs the end of the Petrous Portion were turned more diredly towards the eye. (£) Is the Great Furrow, which the Lateral Sinus, or great internal vein makes, forming a thimble-like cavity at (/), by the laft fudden turn which it makes before leaving the fcull. (tn) Is a very fmall Furrow, formed by a fmall Sinus, or vein, which goes along the ridge of the Petrous Portion. C 7. («) I* l3 OF THE BONES. 7. (») Is the laft or 7th hole of the Temporal Bone. This is the fmall hole, formerly motioned for the paffage of a trifling vein from without into the Lateral Sinus. Ar. B.

JC,Xplain the (Ethmoid Bone ; Figure III. fhowing chiefly the upper furface of the bone, which fupports the fore part of the brain, and which is marked by the C rift a Galli (3) ; and Figure IV. fhows that confufed furface, which hangs over the root or upper part of.. the Nofe, and whofe fpongy bones, (dd) form a part of the Organ of Smell. fa) The Cribriform Plate is the center, as it were, of this bone, to which all the other parts are referred ; this plate is perforated by the Olfadory Nerves, and it is from this horizontal and perforated plate, that the whole bone has its name. The parts belonging to the CEthmoid Bone are, 1. (£) Is the Perpendicular Procefs, which ftands up from the Cribriform Plate, to- wards the brain ; and is named Crista Galli. 2. (c) Is the Nasal Plate; which forms the Septum or partition of the Nofe, ftand- ing perpendicularly downwards and forwards, as the C rift a Galli ftands upwards : the Crifta Galli and the Nafal Plate, are exadly oppofite to each other. 3. (dd) The BOOK FI3.ST, PLATE THIRD. 19 3. {dd) The two upper Spongy B. nes ; they are named fpongy, from their conftitution, for th^y confift of cells ; they are called OiTa Spongiofa Superiora, to diiluiguiih them from two fimilar bones, which hang in the lower part of the Nofe. They are fpoken of as diftind bones, while they are but parts of the (Ethmoid Bon?. 4. (e) The Orbitary Plate of the (Ethmoid Bone ; which, as it is inclofed a- mong the other bones of the Orbit, feems to be a diftind bone furrounded by a peculiar future, and fo is named the Os Planum ; though it is merely the fiat fide of the (Ethmoid Bone. 5. (/*) Marks the place v/here the Os Unguis fhould be i'esn ; but it is pulled away to fhow the numerous cells of the (Ethmoid Bone. Thefe cells are divided into two fets, one fet attached to the Orbitary Plate, or flat fquare fide of the (Eth- moid Bone, the other fet to the Spongy Bone. 6. Qj-) Figure IV. fhows that fet of the cells, which more particularly belongs to the Spongy Bone, and (Z») Figure III. fhows the ceils opened from above, to give a view of thofe, which more particularly belong to the Orbitary Plate. Whatever farther is neeeMary to the demonftration of the (Ethmoid Bone, is to be found in Plates V. and VI. where the ceils are particularly well explained. FIGURE V. and VI. —* IIXplain the Sphoenoid, Pteregoid, or Wedge-like Bone ; it is named Pteregoid from its refemblance to a bat, and is fo prefented here, as to fuggeft the likenefs. C 2 Figure 2 0 OF THE BONES. Figure V. fhows the back view of the bone, -viz. that which is turned towards the- fcull;—Figure VI. fhows the front view, viz. that which is conneded with the bones of the face. Its Processes are, i. The Alae, or wings, commonly named the Temporal Procefles, for they lie in the Temples; the Temporal Mufcles lie upon them, and their upper edge is fquamous like the edge of the Temporal bone, and forms part of the Squamous Suture. 2. Marks that fmooth furface of this Temporal Process, which, being turned to- wards the eye, enters into the Orbit, and fo is named the Orbitary Procefs of the Sphoenoid Bone. 3. The fmall and fharp Spinous Process. 4. The hook-like point of the Spinous Procefs, which is often named the Styloid Pro- cefs. 5. The External Pteregoid Processes ; which are two flat and broad plates. 6. The two internal Pteregoid Processes ; which ftand off a little higher, and more dired from the body of the bone; they are fmaller ; and terminate in a little hook. The Pteregoid Mufcles, which go to the lower jaw, arife from the proceffes themfelves ; and the Tensor Palati Muscle turns round this little hook. 7. The Azygous, or fingle Procefs; which is fingle, becaufe it ftands out from the middle of the bone. It forms part of the partition for the Nofe, and is thence named Nasal Process. 8. The BOOK FIRST, PLATE THIRD. IE 8. The two Anterior Clynoid Processes. 9. The two Posterior Clynoid Processes. 10. The fpace bounded by thefe four Clynoid Processes ; "which, from refembling a Turkifla faddle, is named, Sella Turcica. 11. The two little wings of Ingrafias, called the Transverse Spinous Processes. The cells, which occupy the body of this bone, lying under the Sella Turcica, are to be feen at (g-) Figure VI. and again in Plate VI. The Holes proceed next in order, and are marked alfo with a fuit of numbers, that the demonftration may be continued and entire. 1. (a) The two Optic Holes, tranfmitting the Optic Nerves; which are the fecond pair of the fcull; for the firft pair, viz. the Olfadory Nerves pafs through the CEth- moid Bone. 2. (£) The Foramen Lace rum ; or wide hole, which permits the third, the fourth, the firft branch of the fifth, and the fixth pairs of Nerves to pafs ; for all thefe are fmaller nerves, deftined for the Mufcles of the Eye, and enter thus at the bottom of the focket, while the fecond pair is the proper Optic Nerve. 3. (c) The Foramen Rotundum ; it tranfmits the fecond branch of the fifth pair which goes to the upper Jaw. 4. 09 is 12, OF I HE B3NES. 4. (d) Is the Foramen Ovale, (larger than the Foramen Rotundam) which traufn.its the third branch of the fifth pair, going to the lower jaw. 5. (i) The Spinous Hole, the Foramen Spinale, which is a fmall hole in the very point or tip of the Spinous Procefs. It is not for the transmiflion of a nerve ; but for the entrance of that fmall artery which belongs to the Dura Muter, and which goes along the inner furface of the Parietal Bone, marking it with its furrow. A briftle is patted through this hole in one fide, to fhow the courfe of the artery. 6: The fixth Hole. The Pteregoidean, or Vidian Hole, is not to be feen in this view ; but is to be feen in the next Plate, IV. where it is marked with its proper number, 6. (J) Reprefents the rough fui face where the cuneiform or wedge-like part of this Sphoe- noid Bone has been broken off from the wedge-like procefs of tl^e Occipital Bone. Cg) Marks the Cells of the Sphoenoid Bone, which are occafionally very large, as in this Bone ; and which make all the bone hollow under the Cella Turcica. (/>) Shows where the Falate Bone had adhered to the Sphoenoid ;—and the Palate Bone,. being torn away, has hroker>, and left fome of its fmall cells fticking here to the Sphcencid Bone. .V. B. The Cells of the Falate Bone are explained in the next plate. This Bene is conneded ;----at (/) Figure VI. with the (Ethmoid Bone before ;—at (/") Figure V. with the Os Occipitis behind ;—at (1.) with the Temporal Bones in the Temples. The Spinous Procefs (3.) is locked in betwixt the Temporal and Occipital Bones ;---- BOOK FIRST, PLATE THIRD. 2J Bones ;—and the Pteregoid Proceffes (5.) are joined to the Palate Bone, and form the back of the Noftrils.

Thr 24 OF THE BONES. 4. The Alveolar Process, or that projeding femicircle, which holds the teeth ; thence named Alveolar, or Socket Procefs. 5. The Palate Plate, or Procefs ; of which we fee the rough edge only, viz. that edge by which the Middle Palate Suture, the future in the roof of the mouth, is. formed. V. B. The Palate plate is feen full in Plates IV. V. and VI. 6. The Antrum Maxillare, or Higmorianum. This great cavity appears with a ve- ry wide opening here in the naked bone ; but this opening is covered in the entire fcull, both by the lower fpongy bone, and by the nafal plate of the palate bone. This nafal plate of the palate bone is left in this drawing covering a part of the An- trum ; the reft of this opening is naturally covered by a membrane, which leaves but one fmall hole. The Nafal Plate of the Palate Bone which is left fticking upon the Antrum is mark- ed (a). (£) Marks the only Hole of the Upper Jaw Bone. It is named the Infra-Orbitary Hole. A chief nerve of the face comes out here, named (with its hole) the Infra- Orbitary Nerve. The proper Infra-Orbitary Hole is marked (£) ; and the Canal by which the nerve comes down is marked (c) : at this place the nerve lies under the eye, upon the floor of the orbit,—making a very large groove and hole upon this Orbitary Plate of the Upper Jaw Bone ; for arteries running along bones do not make deeper grooves than the nerves do. X. B. *• bIiOK FIRST, PLATE THIRD. 25 N. B. This Infra-Orbitary Nerve is a chief branch of the Superior Maxillary Nerve.

IS a general view of the Cranium,——explaining and connecting the demonflrations of the individual parts. FIGURE I. X N this view, where the Cranium or Scull Cap is cut off, and the bafis feen from within, the thing that firft ftrikes the eye is,—the formal and regular divifion of the Cra- nium into three hollows (i. 2. 3.) ; and each of thefe is like a ftage or deck, the one lower than the other.

JlIXplains the Vertebrae, with all their procefles and parts; and as the fame parts return in each Vertebra, the feveral Vertebrae ought to be explained rather by ranks and orders, than as individual Bones. FIRST ROW. The firft: row, confifting of Figures I, II, and III, is drawn for the purpofe of contracting the three claries of Vertebras, viz. the Vertebrae of the Back, of the Neck, and of the loins. FIGURE I. JL\ Epresents a Vertebra of the Loins ; and the peculiarities of the Lumbar Vertebrae are thefe. (i.) The body is large and broad, thick, fpongy and loofe in its texture, and tipped with a ring, (a) of harder bone. (2.) The Articulating Proceffes, or, as they are called, the Oblique Proceffes, are large, for they have to bear much force; they ftand diredly upwards and downwards; the four ,*;•. OF Tild .-ones. four Articulating Proceiie:;, (the two upper, as well as the two lower,) are mark- ed 2, 2. (3.) The Spinous Procefs, is fbort, flat, very broad, and ftands horizontally and diredlv out, fo as not to embarrafs the motions of the loins. (4.) The Tranfverfe Procefs is fhort, dired, and very ftrong ; and the Articulating Proceffes (2, 2) go off from the root of it. In each Vertebra, there is formed by the roots of the Tranfverfe and Oblique Proceffes, where they arife from the body, a ring or circle of Bone, which is in each drawing marked ( *); it is for containing the Spinal Marrow. FIGURE II. J S a Vertebra of the Back ; where, (1.) The body is fhorter, and is a large fegment (viz. nearly two thirds) of a fmall circle. (2.) The Articulating Process is fmall and flat, and a little inclined, but not very oblique. (3-) The Spinous Procefs is long,' aquiline, depreffed to fuch an angle that the two Spi- nous Proceffes almoft touch each other, (as is feen in Fig. IV.) (3. 3.) and allow of but a very limited motion. (4. J The Tranfverfe Procefs is long, ftands diredly outwards, or is inclined a little up- wards, and upon every dorfal vertebra there are two marks for .the' articulation of the ribs ; one (b) on the fide of the vertebra itfelf, or rather betwixt the bodies of two vertebrae, for the proper head of the rib, (Fig. X. and XI.) ( 1.); and again there is another articulating furface (c) upon the face or fore part of the Tranfverfe Procefs, which is for the articulation of the little knob (Fig. X. and XI.) (3.) upon the back part of each rib. FIGURE BOOK FIRST, PLATS SEVENTH 47 FIGURE III. 1 HE Cervical Vertebra has thefe chief charaders, (i.) The body is fmall, firm, and of more folid and condenfed bone than in the vertebras of the loins or back. (2.) The Articulating Procefs is truely oblique. (3.) The Spinous Procefs is fhort, and is forked. (4.) The Tranfverfe Procefs is fhort, forked, and has a large hole in it for a great artery of the brain, which by its paffing through this canal of the vertebrae is named Verte- bral Artery. SECOND ROW. This Row explains chiefly the connedions of the Vertebrje. FIGURE IV. C kjHows the manner in which one Dorfal Vertebra fits down upon another, fo that thr Articulating Proceffes (2. 2.) check upon one another, and the Spinous Proceffes (3, 3) are feen to be long and aquiline, and lying fo over each other as to prevent all motion backwards or forwards, while the ribs limit the motion to either fide. But in this drawing the one Spinous Procefs is tilted up from the other a little, owing to the want of that intervertebral fubftance which fhould lie betwixt the bodies. The hole is feen here at [d] betwixt the two vertebrae, by which a nerve goes off at the in- tern1 ice between each Vertebra : fo there are in all twenty-four nerves of the Spine, correfponding with the number of Vertebrae in the Spine. FIGURE 4 8 OF THE BONES. FIGURE V. i WO Dorfal Vertebra: are here feen in their right pofition, conneded by the interver- tebral fubftance; with the end of one rib in its place; and at (b) is feen one arti- culating furface on the body of the vertebra naked. At (c) is feen the articulating furface, upon the face of the Tranfverfe Procefs, naked. At (d) is feen the head of the rib covering the two articulating furfaces ; conneded at (e) with the body, and at (/) with the Tranfverfe Procefs of its own vertebra. FIGURE VI. 1S a drawing of the Intervertebral Substance, which is of that ambiguous nature, that anatomifts choofe this name, to avoid the dilemma of calling it either Cartilage or Ligament, when it has not the charader diftindly either of Cartilage or of Ligament. It is fhown here as it is found betwixt the Lumbar Vertebrae; and the concentric circles of which it confifts are better expreffed towards the margin (g) ; but towards the centre, and efpecially in the very middle, it becomes foft, pulpy, the circles confuf- ed. The fubftance is fo much fofter in the centre, that there is almoft a hole at (£) ; efpecially when the bone is allowed to fpoil a little, as this one was. At (/) is feen a flight indication of the Spinal marrow, (which was alfo coirupted,) going down through the great hole of the vertebra. t THE THIRD ROW. Explains the forms of the Atlas and Dentatus ; the two Vertebrae by which almoft all the motions of the head are performed. Fig. VII. explains the Atlas; Fig. VIII. explains the Dentatus ; Fig. IX, fhows the way in which the Atlas fits down upon the tooth-like procefs and oblique fhoulders of the Dentatus. FIGURE BOOK FIRST, PLATE THIRD. 43 FIGURE VIL JL Xplains the Atlas, or firft Vertebra, where we find, (i.) The body entirely wanting, and the place of the body fupplied by Articulating Sur- faces (2, 2), fo large as to give fufficient ftrength and thicknefs to the fides of the ring. N. B. At the place where the body fhould be, there is at (£) a fmooth Articulating Sur- face for the Tooth-like Procefs of the Atlas rolling. There is at (/) a little tip or point, which is tied by ligaments to the margin of the Occipital Hole ; at (m) there is a fort of ftraitening in the ring, and at this point a ligament goes acrofs the ring, di- viding it into two, and holding firm the tooth-like procefs. (2.) The Oblique or Articulating Proceffes of this vertebra are oval, and of a converging form; and this peculiarity in their diredion limits the motions of the head, fo that it cannot turn, but only nod, upon the Atlas. (3.) The Spinous Procefs is wanting. A fmall knob reprefents the fpinous procefs ; and the want of this fpine enables the Atlas to turn freely in circles upon the Dentatus. (4.) The Tranfverfe Procefs, alfo ending in a little knob, and perforated by the large hole for the Vertebral Artery. FIGURE VIII. rP • ■ I HE Dentatus, where the points of defcnption are, (1.)

The First Figure fhows the Back Part of the Thigh Bone, which is marked by our feeing here, from behind, the length of the neck of the bone;—the manner of its rifing out of the two great proceffes, the Trochanters ;— the projedion and roughnefs of the Linea Afpera, and the deep hollow betwixt the Condyles. The Second Figure, or the fore view, is exceedingly fimple, having no ftrong marks. The Linea Afpera is turned almoft out of fight. . The chief peculiarity of the fore view is, that it fhows the bending form of the bone. H The 58 OF THE BONES. The Points of Description are, (i.)

The manner in which the procefs (c) of the Aftragalus is joined with the Os Calcis, (2) fo as to allow of a fhufRing motion, is alfo explained here. The great length of the firft bone, or Metatarfal Bone of the great toe (£) is alfo to be obferved, becaufe it is fome- times to be cut away; and it fhould not be forgotten that it goes very deep into the foot. The fmall bone, commonly called Sefamoid Bone, from its refembling, or being thought to refemble, a grain of Sefamum (though it is much larger), is feen here at (m) lying under the ball of the great toe, where it is conneded with the tendons of the fhort flexor mufcles of the great toe.----There are commonly two under the ball of each great toe, and there are occafional Sefamoid bones uader the other toes, and fometimes under the great joint of the thumb. The feveral Phalanges, as they are called, or ranks of bones in the toes, need not a- gain be explained. The only important point remaining to be explained, is the double arch of the foot; for there are two arches. Firft (n) the great and general arch;---the two points of which are the tip of the heel, and the ball of the great toe. Thefe points alone of all the foot touch the ground.—The elafticity of this arch, proceeding from its nu- merous bones and their joinings, gives a fpring and eafe in the ftep ; and the arch is BOOK FIRST, PLATE TENTH. 65 is fupported under the weight of the whole body, both by the particular ligaments belonging to the individual joints of the foot,—and more particularly by the Great Fafcia or ligament, (I would call it,) of the fole of the foot, which from one point (the heel) extends to the root of each toe individually. But there is alfo a fecond and particular arch, which the bones of the Tarfus form among themfelves. This arch is explained by fhowing a large central hole, which is ex- preffed in each of thefe drawings, and is marked (0).—In Fig. IV. there is only a darknefs fhowing where this central hole is.—In Fig. V. the hole is feen fair (by the Tarfus being turned round, and is marked (0}.

And that thefe connedions may be underftood^ this bone is marked with this figure (1.) in aH the other drawings. (2.) Is the Thyroid or Shield-like Cartilage ; whieh is indeed the fhield of the Throat, for it is broad, flat, and very deep, and a full inch in length ; it is thick, and often offified. And accordingly it is this broad Cartilage that defends the more delicate parts; its upper horns (dd), are tied to the Os Hyoides by a long liga- ment ; its lower ones (e e) clofely embrace the Cricoid Cartilage. In this drawing,, the Cartilage-is fet fo as to reft upon its two lower Cornua, and to fupport and bal- lance it a common pin marked (*), was thrufiV into it. (3.)

This x. figure then compleats thofe connedions of the parts of the throat; and the effeds of accidental wounds, or of the attempts of Suicides, or of our operation of Bronchotomy will be eafily underftood. Suicides in their attempts very com- monly cut fo high in the throat, immediately under the jaw, that they feldom wound the Carotid Artery; nor do they even hurt the more material parts of the throat; for they ftrike fo high, (commonly above the Thyroid Cartilage), that they do not touch the Trachea, nor injure the Glottis. They only cut off the Os Hyoides from the Larynx; they do not fo properly cut the throat as the tongue ; and when the food paffes by the wound, it does not come from a cut of the (Efophagus acrofs the Trachea, but comes merely from the root of the tongue. Thefe Lateral views explain alfo how idle it is to talk of performing Bronchotomy above the Thyroid Cartilage, fince the Thyroid Cartilage is not in the Trachea, and fince the obdrudion is below that point, being commonly in .the Thyroid Gland, whcih is here marked (6).—Mr Vique D' Azir is not more corred in his Anatomx, where he advifes Bronchotomy to be performed betwixt the Thyroid and Cricoid Carti- lages, in the Triangular Membranous fpace marked (/£) : for, that is exadly by the fide of the Sacculus Laryngis, or Sac of the Larynx, a mucous fecreting bag, which lies here on the infide of the Trachea; and the Trocar would lie almod in the opening of the Glottis, or fo near it, that the irritation could not be endured. The Larynx cannot bear the operation of Bronchotomy, becaufe it is moveable, furnifhed with many mufcles that are eafily excited ; and the lead irritation near the Glottis, throws them into violent contradions. But the Trachea itfelf, can eafily bear to be transfixed BOOK SECOND, PLATE SECOND. 99 transfixed with the Trocar, which neither excites contradions, nor gives pain: Be- fides the obftrudion which requires Bronchotomy, is feldom in the tongue or mouth ; more commonly in the Larynx ; not unfrequently in the Thyroid Gland.

This row is for demondrating the chief mufcles of the Larynx, and Pharynx ; and of courfe, the motions of thefe feveral parts upon each other. And it explains, fird, the mufcles which lie immediately upon, the Cartilages of the Larynx, and which move the parts of the throat upon each other; and thefe lead to a know- ledge of thofe longer mufcles, which come from the jaws, or chin, or dernum, or fhoulder ; and by which the whole throat is moved.

Sometimes this mufcle is divided into two flips, as it is drawn by Cowper, but more commonly it is fingle, as reprefented here, and the upper end cf the Sterno-hyoideus (34), is feen here marked with its proper number. N 2 The Iqq OF THE MUSCLES. The Sterno-hyoideus is implanted into the Thyroid Cartilage, at the poinf v.hert» the Crico-thyroideus (42) ends, and the Hyo-thyroideus (41) begins ; fo that the Crico-thyroideeus is in part covered by the Sterno-thyroideus ; and the Hyo-thyroi- deus again looks like a continuation of the fame mufcle. In Figure X. are feen chiefly the fmall mufcles by which the Cartilages of the Larynx are moved upon each other, modulating the voice. And the chief of thefe are, fird, the Crico-Arytenoideus Posticus, and fecondly the Arytenoide- us Transversus. The Crico-arytenoideus Pofticus (45), " is a fmall Pyramidal Mufcle, which rifes " broader from the back part of the Cricoid Cartilage, where the ring is broad " and deep ; and going diredly upwards, is implanted with a narrow point into the " " back of the Arytenoid Cartilage. This pair of mufcles pulls the Arytenoid " Cartilages" backwards and outward, fo that they at once lengthen and widen the flit; enlarging the opening of the Glottis. Under this lies the Crico-aryte- noideus Lateralis, the fmalleft of thefe mufcles, which arifes from the rim of the Cricoid and is inferted into the root of the Arytenoid Cartilage, and plainly fepa- rates the Arytenoid Cartilages, and widens the Glottis, The Arytenoideus Transversus, (43) is feen here. It is feen crofling betwixt the two Arytenoid Cartilages, going from the root of the one, to the root of the other ; its natural office being to contrad, or occafionally to clofe the Glottis. The Arytenoideus Obliquus, is a very delicate mufcle which lies under this, in the fame way that the Arytenoideus Obliquus lies under the Arytenoideus Pofticus *.

(53>) and (58.) the three Styloid Mufcles arife*. The mufcles then which are to be feen in this drawing of the throat are, 1. The fet of the three Styloid Mufcles; 2. the Conftridor Pharyngis; and 3. the Vaginalis Gulae. The Styloid Mufcles are, the Stylo-glossus (58.) arifing from the forepart of the Styloid Mufcle, and going forwards into the fubftance of the tongue, ftretching forwards into its point for drawing it back into the mouth. The Stylo-hyoideus (39), which begins rather from the backpart of the Styloid Procefs, and goes here into the fide of the Os Hyoides, being (lender at its be- ginning, and broad towards its infertion, as all the Styloid Mufcles are. The Stylo-pharingeus (53.) lies behind or under the Stylo-hyoideus ; for it lies clofe upon the Gullet or Pharynx, expands upon that part of the bag where it is held extended upon the horns of the Os Hyoides ; fo that the Stylo-pharyngeus, when it expands upon the Pharynx, touches the horn of the Os Hyoides, which is marked (*), and as the middle conftridor of the Pharynx arifes efpecially from that * The Stylo-glofTus I had defcribed in my book of the mufcles; but after clafling it in the general arrangement, I had forgotten it in the defcription of individual mufcles. 102 OF THE MUSCLES. that point of the Os Hyoides, the lower fibres of the Stylo-pharyngeus run along- fide of the upper fibres of the middle conftridor, fo that they almoft mix. Thefe' three Styloid Mufcles perform the firft movement in the ad of fwallowing, for they all coincide in lifting up the throat, preffing back the root of the tongue againft the palate, (to draiten the Arches of the Fauces;) and confining the morfel. By comprefling the morfel, they pufh it down, and fo begin that adion, which is compleated by that ftrong Mufcle of the Pharynx, which is next feen.. For the Constrictor Pharyngis, ($$.) is sPkry large and flefhy mufcle, which covers five inches (In length) of the (Efophagus, and pufhes down the morfel, which is already preffed by the contradions about the top of the Pharynx, and chiefly by the adion of the Styloid Mufcles. The Conftridor is fairly enough divided into three mufcles, (54. 55. and 56.) of which the upper one, which cannot be feen here, rifes about the back of the jaws, and from the bafis of the (kull, and from the root of the tongue.. The Middle Constrictor, marked (S5') rifes from tips of the horns of the Os Hyoides- alone, and goes, in a diverging form upwards, till it almoft touches the fkull, and downwards pretty low upon the Gullet. The Lower Constrictor (56.) arifes from the borders or wings of the Thyroid Cartilage, and from the ring of the Cricoid Cartilage. This is the thickeft and fiefhied of all the Condridors ; it is very large, and goes obliquely upwards, covering the lower part of the middle Condridor, and a fmall fpace is left, r, kind of angle betwixt the two Condridors, which is thin and membranous, and there the tips of the horns belonging to the Thyroid Cartilage, are faintly indicated, as ihining through the thin membrane.

The Thyroid Cartilage, where it projeds to form the Pomum Adami. (3.) The Cricoid Cartilage, which is above the Thyroid Gland. Therefore the Thyroid Gland is hardly entitled to the name of Thyroid, fince, in place of refting upon the Thyroid Cartilage, it lies quite below both the Thyroid and Cricoid Cartilages, upon the firft, or rather upon the fecond ring of the Trachea.

The midife ten- don (&) ii feen under the Maftoid mufcle ; and the lower flefhy belly lies too deep to be feen,. for it rifes from the Scapula near the Coracoid Procefs. Thefe are the chief mufcles which pull the throat downwards. The mufcles which pull the throat upwards are the Mylo-Hyoideus, the BivenTER^ and the Stylo-Hyoideus mufcles. (37.). The Mylo-HyoideuS arifes from the whole length of the Jaw Bone, from the; chin to the angle; and it arifes not from the lower border of the jaw ; but ra- ther from the inner furface of the jaw-bone, almoft as high as the fockets for the teeth. It is thick.and flefhy; but ftill it is flat and broad; and goes downwardsm a radiated or fan-like form, to be implanted into the bafis of the Os Hyoides. Within this mufcle lies hidden the Genio-Hyoideus ; without, lies the fore belly of the Digaftric Mufcle ; the Sub-maxillary Gland (c) is ^n external Gland, and lies under the corner of the jaw without,-, (i. e.) over the Mylo-hyoideus ; the Sub- lingual Gland is an internal Gland which lies under the tongue beneath this mufcle. The Mylo-hyoidei' mufcles of oppofite fides are united to each other by a rapha or tendinous feam or line, which is feen at (i)~r and which goes down from the center of the chin to the center of the Os Hyoides. (40.) The Biventer Maxillae Inferioris belongs after all more properly to the throat than to the jaw ; it is called Biventer from its two bellies, which are indeed very dif- tind and beautiful; one belly (k) arifes from the root of the Maftoid Procefs, and fo is feen here coming out from under the Parotid Gland; the fore-belly (/) is feen arifing from under the chin ; the middle tendon has the number of the mufcle (40.) put upon it at that point where it paffes the fide of the Os Hyoides, and there it is attached to the Os Hyoides, not merely by running through a fort of Cartilaginous loop on the fide of that bone, but alfo by running through a loop made by the fleffi of the Stylo-Hyoideus mufcle, which forks at its infertion.

This drawing is a freer diffedion of thefe mufcles, where all the Anatomy of the throat is feen ; for the Parotid Gland, the Carotid Artery, the Jugular vein, the eighth pair of nerves, and the chief mufcles both of the throat, and of the tongue, are here. The Jaw Bone is here, as in the former figure, marked (a) ; the Parotid Gland (b) ; the Carotid Artery (d) ; the Jugular vein (e) ; and the Thyroid Gland, which appears only at two points, and almoft covered by the mufcles, is marked (g). But the moft important parts in the Anatomy of the neck, are the Carotid Artery (d) ; the Jugular vein (e) ; and the Par Vagum, or eighth pair of nerves (8.) This eighth pair is a long nerve, which goes from the head down to the ftomach to end there: It is marked (8.) ; it is feen here, lying upon the great Jugular vein, which 15 BOOK SECOKD, PLATE THIRD.

The mufcles from the Sternum, which pull the throat downwards. ,- 1. The Digaftric and the Styloid Mufcles, which pull the throat upwards. 3. The mufcles which make the flefli of the tongue, the chief part of its bulk. I. The mufcles coming upwards from the Sternum and fhoulder are, (34.) The Stemo-hyoideus, which is feen in all its length, ftretching from the SternUm to the Os Hyoides, and bending over the Thyroid Gland. (35.) The Sterno-thyroideus ; exadly like this^ lying behind and under it, proceeding • from the Sternum to end in the Thyroid Cartilage, and alfo bending over the Thyroid Gland. (41.)

The Stylo-pharyngeus, which lies very deep behind the other Styloid Mufcle?, paffes down under the arm or branch of the Os Hyoides, and expands upon the Pharynx. N. B. In this drawing, the Styloid Mufcles are diffeded upwards very nearly to that point (under the Parotid Gland,) where they rife fmall and delicate, from around the roots of the Styloid Procefs. III. The mufcles which compofe the chief bulk of the tongue, are thefe, (58.) The Stylo-gloflus, which comes fmall and delicate from the root of the Styloid Procefs; expands as it goes towards the tongue, and whofe office is to pull the tongue down into the mouth. (eg.) The Hyo-glossus, which I have reprefented as one fingle flat mufcle, rifing from nearly the whole length of the Os Flyoides *. (60.) Is the Genio-glossus, fo named from its rifing from that point of the lower jaw bone (0), which is called the chin; its fibres go into the tongue in a radiated form, in every diredion, capable of performing all kinds of motions, of lolling the tongue out, and alfo of retrading it again[; whence this mufcle has by way of pre-eminence been * From its arifing in three fafciculi or diftinct bundles, to. one from the bafis, one from the horn, and one from the Cartilage of the Os Hyoides, it has been called the Bafio-chondro-cerato-gloffus, or each fafciculus has occafionally been defcribed, as a diftintt mufcle.

This mufcle which rifes from the point of the chin only, lies under the Mylo-hyoideus (37.) (vide Figure i.) which rifes from the whole length of the jaw ; and thefe together pull the Os Hyoides, and of confequence the throat upwards. "So that there is feen by thefe two drawings, firft, how the Mylo-hyoideirs-j^y.) figure i. and the Genio-hyoideus, (38.) figure ii.pull the throat upwards. Secondly, how the Digaf- tric Mufcle (40.) and the three Styloid Mufcles, figure ii. pull the throat upwards and backwards. Thirdly, how the Sterno-thyroidei, Sterno-hyoidei, and Omo- hyoidei pull the throat downwards. And it is laftly very plain, that thefe at the fame time that they are properly mufcles of the throat, are occafionally mufcles of the lower jaw, the only ones indeed which pull it down ; little force is needed for this, the jaw dropping almoft by its own weight; but, as the motion muft be quick and voluntary, it muft be done by mufcles; and when the mufcles from the Sternum fix the throat or pull it down, the Genio-hyoidei, Mylo-hyoidei and Bi- venter deprefs the jaw ; f® that the motions of the jaw and throat, or in other words, the adion of chewing and fwallowing have this confent, that they are partly per- formed by the fame common mufclesj fo that we cannot chew and fwallow at once; the jaw which moves in chewing the morfel, muft be fixed when it is to be fwal* lowed; and fo the motions. foV chewing and fwallowing alternatively fuceeed each other, 0 HAfi: i i BOOK SECOND, PLATE THIRD. 103 PLATE III.

And thefe mufcles though they belong chiefly to the throat, do occafionally alfo move the jaws. In Figure I. is feen, i. The Os Hyoides, where it lies in the root of the tongue. a. The Thyroid Cartilage, where it projeds to form the Pomum Adami. 3. The Cricoid Cartilage, which is above the Thyroid Gland; therefore the Thyroid Gland is hardly entided to that name; fince in place of reding upon the Cartilages of the Larynx, it lies quite below both the Thyroid and Cricoid Cartilages, properly upon the uppermoft ring of the Trachea, or upon the fird and fecond ring; then (a) is the Thyroid Gland which confids of two lobes, one lying upon the right fide of the Trachea, the other upon the left fide; the two lobes are joined by a nar- row flip of the Glandular fubdance which lies upon the forepart of the Trachea, and is called the Isthmus, i. e. neck betwixt the two lobes, joining together the two lobes «£ the Gland. The Gland is large, where the bulk of it can lie at either fide of the 104 QF THE MUSCLES. the Trachea; but its Idhmus marked (a) is very thin, and almoft membranous, where it lies upon the forepart of the Trachea. We find the Gland fmaller in men, larger in women, of great variety in refped of fize ; very generally fo large, as to be didinguifhed by the fingers on the outfide of the throat, very often enlarged, and often defcending deep behind the Trachea ; fo that the two oppofite lobes al- mod meeting behind, furround that Tube, and explain to us how terrible and how incurable (by every operation at lead), that fuffocation mud be, which proceeds from a fwelling of this Gland. This form of the Gland almod furrounding the Trachea, the two oppofite lobes nearly meeting behind, is better explained in the Trachea, drawn at Figure vi. Plate ik The Muscles here are, Fird, the Mylo-hyoideus, (37.) which arifes from the whole length of the jaw, i. e. from the chin almod to the angle ; and it rifes not from the lower border of the jaw, but rather from the inner furface of the jaw, almoft as high as the fockets for the teeth. It is thick and flefhy, but ftill is flat and broad; it goes down to the Os Hyoides, is implanted ftill flefhy, and with radiated or fan-like fibres, into its upper border. The Genio-hyoideus lies within this one ; the fore- belly of the Digaftricus lies flat upon it without; the Sub-maxillary Gland (b), is an external gland and lies (under the corner of the jaw,) above the flat belly of this mufcle ; but the Sub-lingual Gland lies under the root of the tongue, is an inter- nal Gland, and lies under the belly of the Mylo-hyoideus Mufcle. The Mylo- hyoideus of each fide is united with its fellow by a tendinous line (c), or rapha which goes down from the point of the chin, to the center of the Os Hyoides. Second, the Digastkicus, (40.) or Biventer is a mufcle having two bellies, one rifing from under the Madoid Procefs, another arifing from the tip of the chin. The fore-belly and the middle tendon only are feen here; the back belly, viz. that which rifes 2 from SOOK SECOND, PLATE THIRD.

At this place it runs through a loop of ligament, and fo is attached to the fide of the Os Hyoides. Thirdly, the Sterno-hyoideus (34.) is feen here coming from the Sternum, going to the Os Hyoides; pafling flat and ribband-like over the Thyroid Gland, and bulg- ing a little where the chief bulk of the gland lies below. Fourthly,, the Sterno-thyroideus,. (35.) rifes like it a little deeper and behind it; is like it a flat and ribband-like mufcle ; like it covers the Thyroid Gland, and bulges a little over the place where the chief bulk of the Gla^d is. And where this Sterno- thyroideus ends, the Hyo-thyroideus (41.) begins, and is hke a-continuation of that mufcle. Fifthly, the Omo-hyoideus (36.) once named Goraco-hyoideus, comes upwards from the fhoulder, from near the Coracoid Procefs. It erodes the neck obliquely, and is inferted along with the .other mufcles, into the fide of the Os Hyoides.

The Digastric Muscle, (40.) of which the upper belly is feen drawn out from its true diredion by a thread, and it is thus difplaced a little in order to (how the Styloid Mufcles; and that belly (g) which comes from the chin, and which is feen in its place in the firft figure, is here feen cut up and turned backwards, and hanging by that point at which the middle tendon is attached to the fide of the Os Hyoides. 3. The Styloid Muscles lie in a group, round the root of the Styloid Procefs ; the Styloid Procefs itfelf is marked (m) ; and the Stylo-glossus (58.) is feen going to- wards the tongue. The Stylo-pharyngeus (53.) is feen going down towards the 1 Pharynx, BOOK SECOND, PLATE THIRD. 107 Pharynx, covered by the Stylo-hyoideus, (39.) which is fixed into the fide of the Os Hyoides; and which forking into two, where it touches that bone, embraces the middle tendon of the Digaftricus, fo as to let it run as a rope in a pully. 4. The. fet of mufcles compofing the tongue, and making up its chief bulk and fub- dance, are alfo explained here. The Genio-hyoideus, (38.) is feen lying in the root of the tongue, coming from the point on the inner furface of the chin, and inferted into the Os Hyoides. The Genio-glossus, (60.) is next feen, going from the fame point into the fubdance of the tongue, with fibres radiated in every diredion ; fome fibres going backwards, fome upwards, and fome again forwards, it is capable of performing all the various motions of the tongue, hence it has been called Mufculus Pollychredus. Then the Hyo-glossus, (59.) which rifes from the Os Hyoides, I have reprefented as one fingle mufcle, and have given it here the moft fimple name. It is drawn as rifing from the whole length of the Os Hyoides *. 5. The fet of mufcles coming upwards from the Sternum or (houlder, are alfo well explained here; for the Sterno-hyoideus, (34.) is feen running up along the forepart of the Trachea, bulging out a little where it paffes over the Thyroid Gland, which in this woman was' very large ; and bending the more becaufe the mufcle (which is full fix inches long), is here fully diffeded, and fo lies quite flaccid and loofe. The Sterno-thyroideus, (35.) is feen very diftindly, alfo covering the Thyroid Gland lying behind, and under the lad named mufcle. V. B. The Hyo-THYROIDEUS, (41.) is feen continuous with this one, beginning where it ends like a continuation of the fame mufcle. Laftly, The Omo-hyoideus, (36.) is feen coming obliquely upwards from the fhoulder, and here it is very diftindly feen that at (/z), the place where this mufcle runs under the belly of the great O 2 Sterno- * From its arifing in three fafciculi or diftinct bundles, viz. one from the bafis, one from the horn,. and one fi-om the Cartilage of the Os Hyoides, it has been called the Bafio-chondro-oeratoglofius, or each fafciculus has occafionally been defcribed, as a diftinct mufcle. io8 of the Muscles. Sterno-Maftoideus Mufcle, it is not flefhy, but fmall, delicate and tendinous. Then this mufcle has a middle tendon which though very fhort, (being but an inch in length), is yet very didind and very condant; fo that the Omo-hyoideus is pro- perly a Digadric Mufcle, as fairly as the Digadricus Maxillae Inferioris. It has one belly from the fhoulder, near the root of the Coracoid Procefs; one at the throat, from the Os Hyoides ; and the middle tendon («), runs under the belly of the Sterno-mastoideus. So that there is feen by thefe two drawings, fird, how the Mylo-hyoideus, figure i. and the Genio-hyoideus, figure ii. pull the throat upwards. Secondly, how the Digaf- tric Mufcle, and the three Styloid Mufcles, figure ii. pull the throat upwards and backwards. Thirdly, how the Sterno-thyroidei, Sterno-hyoidei, and Omo-hyoidei pull the throat downwards. And it is laftly very plain, that thefe at the fame time that they are properly mufcles of the throat, are occafionally mufcles of the lower jaw, the only ones indeed which pull it down; little force is needed for" this, the jaw dropping almod by its own weight; but, as this motion muft be quick and voluntary, it muft be done byT mufcles, and when the mufcles from the Sternum fix the throat or pull it down, the Genio-hyoidei, Mylo-hyoidei and Bi- venter deprefs the jaw ; fo that the motions of the jaw and throat, or in other words, the adion of chewing and fwallowing* have this confent, that they are partly per- formed by the fame common mufcles, fo that we cannot chew and fwallow at once; the jaw which moves in chewing the morfel, muft be fixed when it is to be fwal- lowed; and fo the motions for chewing and fwallowing alternatively Succeed each other.

This and the two following Plates explain the Text Book, from Page 23 Z, to Page 285, 1 HIS plate explains thofe broad mufcles, which, belonging to the Scapula, lie flat upon the back, covering the whole of the trunk, and which are very remarkable in beautiful ftatues. The mufcles are chiefly the Trapezius, and the Latissimus Dorsi ; and this drawing is not fo much of value as a piece of Anatomy, as in explaining to the ftudent the firft appearance of his difleclion of 'the back; and by explaining the great mufcles of the Scapula, it marks a good beginning for the Ana- * tomy of the arm. THE Trapezius Muscle, (6a) " is one of the moft beautiful mufcles of the body, of " a Lozenge-like form. Covers all the back and neck quite round to the fore-part of " the (houlder; the two mufcles extend from the tip of the one (houlder, to the " tip of the other, and from the nape of the neck quite down to the loins." The ftrong middle tendon by which the two mufcles of the oppofite fides are conneded, is marked (a), the infertion into the Occiput is marked (b), and the infertion into the fpine of the Scapula, is marked (c). *< The Latissimus Dorsi, (70.) it is the broadeft not only of the back, but of the " whole body, covering all the lower parts of the back and loins."
