¶Of the Buttockes. Ca. 50.
THe buttockes be called Nates in la∣tine,* 1.1 and haue that name because the bodye resteth on them, while we sit or ride, as saith Isidore. And the flesh in the buttockes is frumpled and knottie: because they should not ake by wayght and heauinesse of the bodye that sitteth thereon. And so the stocke of the bodie is borne vp, which beginneth at the necke, and stretcheth to the buttockes, us saith Isidore. Constantine saith, that the buttocks be full of sinewes, and that is for to binde the ioynts of the thighes to the stocke of the body: and therefore they be fleshie, to temper the coldnesse of the sinewes and bones and to defend the féelyng of the sinewes as saith Constan∣tine lib. 3.Cap. 8.
The decay of the buttockes,* 1.2is vn∣constant dyet, much lechetie, and cold sitting.
