TYRO-ETYMOLOGICUS.

_"Sedem Animæ", &c._--Will any of your correspondents inform me where the

following quotation is taken from:--

"Sedem animæ in extremis digitis habent."

It will be found in Burton's _Anatomy of Melancholy_, folio edition (7th),

p. 55., and in the 8vo. edition of 1837, vol. iv. p. 80. Burton cites it as

from Sallust, but the verbal index of that author has been consulted in

vain for it.
