1239. About inward examiners, or inward judgment
There are those who constitute inward judgment, just as those making up the province of the kidneys and ureters constitute outward judgment. The first-mentioned constitute the province of that part of the brain where its excretions take place. There are many of these in the brain, namely, those within the pia mater between the folds. Then, between the tissues there are those that are pressed out into the mammillary processes, and toward the cribriform layer, and are excreted in living subjects through the openings between the meninges and the bundles of tissues. In the dead these foramina are closed, so there is no excretion. There are also excretions that are channeled into the large ventricles, where there are phlegmy substances together with spirituous ones.
