Lecture 2d. Decr. 19th 1783
The human Body is an Hydraulic Machine, which sub-
sists by constant & determined Motion of ist Humours,
in proper Vessels contained in itself, & by which Nu-
triment is conveyed for its Support & Increase; & like
other Hydraulic Machines is determined by the Laws of Motions
Anatomy treats of the Structure of the several Parts & OsteoPhysiology
of the Use of them. The Connexion between these two Sciences
is evident, & you will easily perceive how much it will
enliven our the the Subject of our Anatomical Lectures with Physi-
ological Observations. The Human Body consists of two parts
Solids & Fluids. The Formed are divided into Osteology,
which treats of the Bones, & Sarcology, which treats of the Flesh
& soft Parts. And this latter is divided into Myology, which
treats of the Muscles, Splanchnology of the Viscera, Angeiology
of the Vessels, particularly sanguiferous; Neurology of the
Nerves, & Adenology the Glands. The Fluids found in the Body are the
Blood, the Chyle of which the Blood is formed & those Fluids
which are separated from the Blood by Secretion or Filtration
These last are of three Classes. The 1st comprehends those which
are mixed again with the Blood for different Uses, as the
Saliva & these are termed Recrements
