The Muscle which when it is drawn to its Head performes this motion and signi∣fication of the Mind is, the third Muscle seated in the great Angle, and ariseth from the Orbite of the Eye, neere the Origination of the Proud Muscle, and is inserted as the former. It is common∣ly called Adducens, the To-leader; be∣cause it leads the eye inward towards the Nose; & by the Barbarous Bibitorius, the Tosse-pot; because they make use of this Muscle who look into the Cup they drink out. Dr Crooke calls it the Gleejng Muscle; for that the Eye is usually turnd that way in gleejng; we may call it the Squinting Muscle; I say the Tragick or Hobgoblin Muscle, but most oppo∣site and pathetically it may be called Musculus acerbus & severus, the Sowre an•• severe Muscle.
