The brain as an organ of mind . Hemispheres cut off—above the level of the Ventricle on the left, and so as to show this cavity on theright side.

Hippocampus, with its unusuallybioad free border or toenia (i) continued into the Fornix ; g, Thalamus. referred to in Reptiles and Birds, where they first showthemselves as projections developing from the upper andinner aspects of the Cerebral Peduncles : in Quadrupeds,however, owing to the backward extension of the CerebralHemispheres, they seem to become included within theseand to project into the inner part of the floor of eachLateral Ventricle. But in reality they lie outside theseparts. They are overlapped by the velum interpositum,a membrane constituting the roof of the Third Ventricle. 270 THE BRAIN OF QUADRUPEDS AND and also by the * fornix and lyra/ tlie description ofwhich will shortly follow.* Between the contiguous inner surfaces of the Thalami.
