THese have their names from their habitations, they dwelling amongst the Bones; These Muscles do arise Fleshy from the sides of the Bones of the Metatarsus, and are inserted by some broad, but short Tendons, into the first Joynts of the Toes outwardly, but inwards to the second Joynts thereof. The outward working, they do abduce the Toes: the inward do adduce them; they both working toge∣ther, do extend them.
In the Sole of the Foot, which by some is called Vestigium, is a Fleshy Mass observable, the which like a Pillow or Bowl∣ster doth keep warm the Tendons of the Muscles of the Foot, the which some Anatomists, although confusedly, do joyn with the Musculus Transversalis.
These Muscles you have delineated at Tab. 37. Fig. 3. at C C. C. C. C. D. D. D. D. D. And at F. F. F. F. F. G. G. G. G. G. in the Toes by themselves.
Thus have I concluded the whole Discourse of Muscles; all I shall farther add, is, the Enumeration of them, with their Re∣ductions to their proper Places, Uses, and Offices, being either Relative to the Venters or to the Articulations, having already presented and drawn forth to you every of their Forms and Shapes: as also shewn their Originations and Terminations; leaving you Directions, how to find out every Muscle in its order by a proper Index made for that purpose.
FINIS.
