If now there is such an anatomical arrangement in theBody as has been forecast as necessary, it will readilyappear. In fact it does exist in the Body, crudely shownby Figs. 12 and 13, and more in detail, though not as clearly,in Plate 1. In Fig. 13 we see a representation of the greatcentres of voluntary life, corresponding to the voluntaryMuscular System, forming the brains of the head, and alsothe most essential brains or centres or ganglia of the spinalcord. From these centres, Nerves (twins) right and left, ex-tend into the Muscles, and from all parts of the Body intothe Centres. (See also Fig. 18, in which the same centresand nerves are shown with their sheath removed, and the same in their sheath.) That these centres and nerves belong to one grand Sys- * The plural is used here because the sense of taste is double in the mouth,and the sense of touch double in the skin. 85. Fig. 15.

Fig. 15, end of finger, natural size, with its nerves very much enlarged. 86 tern is plain, since it is shown by Fig. 14, (the nerves arecut near the cord,) that all these centres and nerves are en-closed in one common sheath, constructed of Sinewy Tissue,and having many branches, like the bark of a tree. This en-closure and its contents are entirely independent of otherparts, except that it is pierced by blood tubes, carryingblood to and from its contents ; it is also here and there at-tached to surrounding parts by fibres of Sinewy Tissue. It has been mentioned that the Centres are placed intheir bony cavities to maintain equable temperatures
