Quote p. 11

[Latin]

N°. XXV. Acetabulum ossis innominati foetus immaturi, sub cujus medio ligamentum nerveo-cartilagineum in conspestum venit, in liquore.

Not. 1°. Dicti ligamenti basinad robur articuli, admodum esse latam, & expansam, acetabuloque asfixam, donec pervenerit ad marginis partem inferiorem, ubi ab acetabulo recedens inseritur in caput ossis femoris.

2°. Dictum ligamentum rubedine esse perfusum, propter arteriolarum repletionem. 

[Dutch]

N°. XXV. De Panne van het Naam-loose-been, vati een onvoldrage Schepseltje, ouder wiens midden men zien kan de zenuwkraakbcnigeband voort te komen en legt dit in een giaasje met vogt.

Aanmerkt ten eerste, dat dese band vry breed en uytgestrekt is aan deslelfs voortkomen of grond, en dat tot versterking van het junctuur. Ook is dezelve zoo ver met de panne vereenigt, tot onder aan de rand van de panne, alwaar ’t de panne verlatende, sigh komt te planten in ’t hooft van het Dyebeen.

Ten tweeden, dat dese band ons hier rood van couleur voorkomt, wegens het opvullen der Slagh-aderkens.
