in Anatomy, a popular name for the SPLEEN.

Milt, in Natural History, the soft roe in fishes; thus called from its yielding, by expression, a whitish juice resembling milk. See ROE.

The milt is properly the seed or spermatic part of the male fish. The milt of a carp is reckoned a choice bit. It consists of two long whitish irregular bodies, each included in a very thin fine membrane. M. Petit considers them as the testicles of the fish wherein the seed is preserved; the lower part, next the anus, he supposes to be the vesicula seminalis.
