auricles and ventricles. Afew of the branches forming the superficial cardiac plexus passbackwards and appear on the posterior surface of the heart; acertain number of the branches from the deep cardiac plexuspassing forwards to appear on the anterior surface of the heart.It is quite correct to say that the surface and substance of theauricles and ventricles are enveloped in a more or less uniformplexus. The superficial and deep cardiac plexuses and their pro-longations on the surface and in the substance of the heart displaynumerous ganglionic enlargements, to be described presently. The branches supplied by the pneumogastric and sympatheticnerves to the heart on the right side of the human subject arerepresented at Fig. 145. This figure also shows the interlacing ofthe nervous filaments which forms the various plexuses described,as well as the ^anLilionic enlargements, which are a distinguishingfeature of the plexuses. 2 I 24a DR PETTIGREW ON THE PHYSIOLOGY OF CIRCULATION.
