Add SVG to a page

How do you put an svg into a ul li? Can anyone kindly help?

<nav>
    <ul>
        <li><a href="#" title="Home">Home</a></li>
        <li><a href="#" title="About">About</a></li>
        <li>
            <object class="logo" data="img/logo.svg" type="image/svg+xml"></object>
        </li> 
        <li><a href="#" title="Work">Work</a></li>
        <li><a href="#" title="Contact">Contact</a></li>
    </ul>

Heres how some code for an SVG look from the header of the site I'm currently working on.

<object data="media/Logo70.svg" type="image/svg+xml" class="headerlogo"></object>

This wrapped in a <li> tag should work, just swap out the "data" and get rid of/ change the "class".

You can display code by wrapping it in " `` ".
