The Second Figure

Shews a simple Muscle cleft in the middle, after the Tendon being cut off, and portions of it pulled away, that the interiour series of the fleshy Fibres, or their commixtures or mingling with the Tendons, may appear.

  • A A. The right Tendon being placed above, both portions of which divided, do in some measure appear.
  • B B. The left opposite Tendon placed below, either portions of which divided, lye hid for the most part under the Flesh, those towards the edges being only conspicuous.
  • C D. Portions of the fleshy Belly divided and separated, which before (this being laid upon that) did cohere, in either of which all the fleshy Fibres proceed equally, and in like manner obliquely from one Tendon to another.
  • E. Some membranaceous Fibrils represented, thickly crossing the fleshy Fibres.
