Besides, air pressing equally to all sides, and the globuly of the blood swimming in a fluid; this pressure, be it What it will, I think, can be of little use to make such separations. Indeed it may be objected that the greatest pressure is in exspiration, yet that surely cannot be very great, while the air has so free a passage out of them. Others have thought, that the air enters the blood-vessels from the cells in the lungs, and mixes with the blood; but this opinion, however probable, wants sufficient experiments to prove it; air being found in the blood, as it certainly is, is no proof of its entering this way, because it may enter with the chyle: nor is the impossibility which has been urged of its entering at the lungs without the blood being liable to come out the fame way into the vesicles of the lungs, a good argument to the contrary; for if a pliable duct passes between the membranes of a veflel, through a space greater than the square of its orifice, no fluid can return, because the pressure which ssiould force it back will be greater against the fides of that duct than its orifice j which is the case of the bile-duct entering the duodenum, and the ureters entering the bladder.-I think the most probable argument for the air's en particular part of the air, may be setched from a known experiment of each man in a diving bell wanting wanting near a gallon of fresh air in a minute j and it pressure only was wanted in this case, they often descend, till the pressure of the air is three or four times what it is upon the surface of the earth, without any advantage from that pressure; and animals dying so soon in air that has been burnt, ...
