“...Why, I ask, when we see that the structure of 
both ventricles is almost identical, there being the 
same apparatus of fibers, and braces, and valves, 
and vessels, and auricles, and both in the same 
way in our dissections are found to be filled up 
with blood similarly black in color, and coagulat-
ed-why, I say, should their uses be imagined to be 
different, when the action, motion, and pulse of 
both are the same? …  
… And I ask, as the lungs are so close at hand, 
and in continual motion, and the vessel that sup-
plies them is of such dimensions,  what is the use 
or meaning of this pulse of the right ventricle? 
And why was nature reduced to the necessity of 
adding another ventricle for the sole purpose of 
nourishing the lungs?”
