The nucleus of thefourth nerve on either side is connected with those of the third and sixth nervesand with the optic reflex center previously described. Functions. The fourth nerve is exclusively motor, and supplies only thetrochlearis or superior oblique muscle of the eyeball. The Fifth Nerve, or Trigeminal. Origin. The fifth or trigeminalnerve resembles the spinal nerves in that it has two roots; namely, the larger nyiri.

The fibers of origin of the fifth nerve come from the floor of thefourth ventricle. The motor root arises to the inside of the sensory, about themiddle of each lateral half of the fourth ventricle. The sensory fibers,however, can be traced down in the medulla oblongata as far as the upper partof the cord. The m
