Excerpt from An Inquiry Into the Causes of the Motion of the Blood: With an Appendix, in Which the Process of Respiration and Its Connexion With the Circulation of the Blood Are Attempted to Be Elucidated

Two Centuries have now nearly elapsed since the Circulation of the Blood was first taught by Dr. Harvey. This theory haslong surmounted the op position against which it had for a period to contend from inveterate prejudices and jealous ambition; is universally acknowledged to have been fully proved by its author; and is deservedly ranked among those discoveries which are supposed to confer the greatest honour upon human nature.
