The physiology of the circulation in plants : in the lower animals, and in man : being a course of lectures delivered at surgeons' hall to the president, fellows, etc of the Royal college of surgeons of Edinburgh, in the summer of 1872 . ance of the auriclesnot a few pass through the auricular walls. The nerves supplied tothe auricles are not quite so numerous as those supplied to theventricles. Distribution of the Nerves on the Surface and in the Substance ofthe Ventricles of the Calf—The nerves on the surface of the ven-tricles, if allowance be made for their breaking up slightly to formmeshes, follow a common course; , they run in spiral lines fromright to left downwards. The direction pursued by the nerves isprecisely the opposite of that pursued by the muscular fibres; inother words, the muscular fibres form left-handed spirals, whereasthe nerves, form right-handed spirals. I mention this, becausealthough it has been noted that the nerves cross the muscularfibres obliquely from base to apex, no allusion is made to thecomplete spirals formed by them, particularly as they near the HYSIOLOG\ OF 1IIK CIRCULATION. 249 apex.
