Transcription
Boerhaave sends the index to Ruysch’s ‘Thesaurus Anatomicus’, which he purchased, so Sloane can decide whether he wants a copy for the Royal Society’s library. Herman Boerhaave was a Dutch physician, botanist, and humanist famous for his teaching at the Faculty of Medicine at the University of Leiden. He was a fellow of the Academie des sciences and the Royal Society (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herman_Boerhaave).
