The Nose 3. senteth smels and stinks.
The Tongue 4. with the roof of the mouth tasteth savours, what is sweet or bitter, keen or bi∣ting, sowr or harsh.
The Hand 5. by touching discerneth the quantity and quality of things, the hot and cold, the moist and dry, the hard and soft, the smooth and rough, the heavy and light
The inward Senses are three.
The Common-sense 7. under the forepart of the head, apprehendeth things taken from the outward Senses.
The Phantasie 6. under the crown of the head ••••dgeth of those things, thinketh and dreameth.
The Memory 8. under the hinder part of the head ••••yeth up every thing and fetcheth them out: loseth some, and this is forgetfulness.
Sleep, the Rest of the Senses.
