SECT. III. Of the EYES.
THe EYE-BROWES are those thick
hairs at the bottom of the forehead: the
upper eye-lid is that little part which compasseth the
upper part of the eye: the eye is that round ball
which is contained between the upper and lower
eye-lids: the black of the eye is the round spot in
the midst of that little circle, by virtue whereof we
see, and is called the apple or sight of the eye: the
outward corner of the eye is next the ear, the inner
is toward the nose; all the space between the up∣per
eye-lid and the outward corner of the eye, and
the whole turning of the eye to the upper part of the
cheek is called the case or hollow of the eye.
