many ramifications are varioufly difperfed into the
fubftance of the reins themfelves. On the right of
the vena cava, juft under the emulgent, arifes the rig -ht
feminal vein ; and in the fame place, from the arteria
magna, arifes the feminal artery, both defcending into
the right tejlicle. On the left, the feminal artery
arifing from the trunk of the arteria magna, and the
feminal vein from the left vein of the emulgent, are
both inferted into the left tern* cle. Befides thefe,
there are nerves coming from the part of the final
marrow, contained in the vertebra, that reach to the
reins, and not only pierce their coats, but penetrate
their very fubftance. Laftly, the ureters, produced
from the cavity of the reins themfelves, are inferted
into the bladder. As we may call all thefe by a
