(printed on the same Letter and Paper, to be bound up with either the 7th, 8th, 9th, or 10th Editions of that Book).

Also a curious Piece, (as promis'd) translated out of the Latin, from L. Sckmeider, as it is inserted in the Acta Lipsiensia, concerning the return of the Seed into the mass of Blood, well worth the perusal of Physicians, Surgeons, Anatomists, and all others of Art and Curiosity. And which with an Answer to a late scurrilous Libel, call'd Onania Examin'd and Detected, clearing up the Charges against the Onania, and those especially relating to the Ladies, as several Letters from them shew, compleats all what the Author has to say on this Subject.
