_Note,_
That though in this last Head there is repeated the _Transfusion_ of Blood, because the Operation is an Art requiring diligence, and a practised hand to perform it for all advantagious Discoveries, and so to be distinguish'd from the _Anatomical_ Account; yet that there is not affected noise and number, may well appear by reviewing and comparing the particulars of _Artificial Instruments_ in the {407} _Table_, where sometimes one Engin or Instrument may minister Aid to discover a large branch of Philosophy, as the _Baroscope_, an _Optick Glass_, &c.
And very particularly M. _Rook_'s directions for Seamen, which specifies Instruments, may hereunto belong.
And sometimes in one of the Discourses herein mention'd, and abbreviated, there are almost as many Artificial Inventions, as Experiments; as in Mr.
_Boyle_'s Hydrostatical Experiments: Besides all the Chymical Operations, recited in the _Treatise_ of the _Origine of Forms_, &c.
