AQUATIC, something which lives, breeds, or grows
in, or about the Water. See Water.
We have Aquatic Plants, Aquatic Animals, &c. See Plant, Animal, &c.
Trees which grow on the Banks of Rivers, or in Marshes, &c. are also call'd Aquatics.
AQUEOUS, {sc|Aquosus}}, something that partakes of the Nature of Water, or abounds therein. See Water.
Thus Milk is said to consist of an Aqueous or serous, and a butyrous Part. See Milk.
The Chymists separate the Aqueous Part or Phlegm from all Bodies by Distillation. See Phlegm.
Aqueous Humor, is the first outermost of the three Humours of the Eye. See Humour and Eye.
It lies immediately under the Cornea, which it causes to protuberate a little; and is supposed to be furnished by certain Ducts provided for the purpose. See Cornea.
Anatomists are divided about the Origin and Conveyance of this Humour.'Tis certain, the Source must be pretty plentiful, inasmuch as, if by any Accident the Coats it is contain'd in be wounded, so that the Humour runs out, and the Cornea falls or collapses; the Wound readily heals, by only closing of the Eye, and the Humour recruits: of which we have numerous lnstances among Physicians.
Dr. Nuck thinks he has discover'd the Ducts whereby the Humour is furnish'd. See Aqueous Ducts.
Others denying the reality of those Duels, suppose it immediately derived from the Arteries. Dr. Drake admits the Ducts, and takes 'em to be only Branches of the excretory Ducts of the Glandula Innominata, and Lachrymalis; which piercing the Tunicks of the Eye, deliver their Liquor by ways hitherto unknown.
Aqueous Ducts, or Ducts Aquosi Nuckii, are certain Ducts, discover'd by Dr. Nuck, whereby the Aqueous Humour is supposed to be convey'd into the inside of the Membranes which inclose that Liquor. But the Discovery is not universally allow'd. See Aqueous Humour.
AQUILA, in natural History, &c. See Eagle.
Aquila, in Astronomy, a Constellation of the northern Hemisphere; usually join'd with Antinous. See Constellation.
The Stars in the Constellation Aquila and Antinous, in Ptolomy's Catalogue, are 15; in Tycho's, 17; in the Britannic Catalogue, 70 : The Longitudes, Latitudes, Magnitudes, &c. whereof, are as follow.
