JTIAVING found that the COMPENDIUM ANA. TOMICUM made ufe of by my predeceffor, was infufficient to anfwer all the purpofes of the more enlarged plan, which I have ventured to adopt in the delivery of anatomical lectures; I have been led to attempt the compofition of a Syllabus, which I hope will convey a more perfect idea of the fubjects I intend to enlarge upon in the enfuing courfe.

With regard to the order, in wrjich I have chofen to arrange the different articles of this Syllabus, I have adhered as nearly to that in •which they will be treated of at the lectures,

as

( vi )

as the nature of the undertaking would admit* And to remedy the inconvenience, which might arife from any occaiional breach in this order, I have avoided the divifion of it into feparate lectures, and have prefixed numbers to each article, by which means they may be referred to at pleafure. The number of articles has alfo been reduced into as fmall a compafs as poflible, by omitting the enumeration of the Bones and Mufcles, a catalogue of which will be found at the end of the Syllabus.

Befides the more immediate purpofe for which the following pages were defigned, I am not without hopes that an attempt (which as far as I know is the firft,) to coll eel: and arrange the principal facls, and difcoveries in Anatomy, may be of ufe to other Teachers of the art, who may poflibly think it worth while to extend and improve the plan which I now offer to the Public.

After the Anatomy of the human body is* completed, it is likewife my intention to give

fame

( vii )

fome fcparate lectures on the ftruflure of Ani- mals. And in the divifion of the fubjed, all thofe Analogies which affift us in explaining the ftrudure and ufes of the Animal CEconomy, will be particularly pointed out.

The articles which compofe this part of the Syllabus, are comprifed under the general head

of Comparative Anatomy.
