☞Of the eares.
NExte after the iawes,* 1.1 and vnder the bones Parietalia,
on the ryghte side and on the lefte syde, are ordeyned
the eares, (which are called in Greke Ota, and in La∣tine
Aures:) and set on eche syde vpon the harde bone Petrosū,
whyche is a parte of the bone Mendosum, hauynge in the ho∣lownesse
therof a wrinckled crookednesse, endinge wyth a
number of pores. By reason of whiche crookednesse, there
maye passe no instrument into the eares, be it neuer so fine
no not a bristle, (as Galen saythe in the nynthe & eleuenthe
bokes of the vse of partes.) Unto whyche holownesses on
descriptionPage 54
bothe sydes doe come the synewes of bearinge, called Nerui
audibiles,* 1.2 which are of the fifthe coniugation of synewes of
the braine, whyche are sayd to be holow. And wheras they
come to the holes of the eares, they are wrythed muche like
a vine presse, and are made at the endes like the heades
of wormes, and vpō these bones is made & groweth a brode
gristle, whych we cal ye ear, wheron are planted certeyn sē∣syble
synewes, cōminge frō the skin that couereth the scul:
wherwt also are conioyned some soft fleshy partes, & certen
wryncles of veines and synewes halfe round.* 1.3 Whyche the
chirurgien must cut acco••dinge to that forme, when anye
cuttynges be nedefull in that place.
