Eachvillus is covered by an epithelium of columnar cells inclosinga parenchyme, with traces of unstriped muscular fibre, the com-mencement of the lacteal absorbents, and a rich supply ofcapillary vessels. From the analogy of the gastric tubules itmay be concluded that the intestinal ones continue the sol-vent and alterative operations on the chyme. Other arrange-ments of secreting surface relate to the furnishing of lubri-eating mucus for accessory offices: these are noted as thee follicles.
