to_o incur_v 2._o or_o 3._o evil_n which_o ordinary_o happen_v the_o first_o be_v that_o the_o child_n in_o the_o end_n of_o the_o eleven_o month_n do_v make_v certain_a endeavour_n to_o free_v

himself_o a_o good_a while_n before_o the_o time_n of_o labour_n and_o therefore_o i_o say_v exercise_n be_v very_o dangerous_a the_o first_o reason_n be_v because_o by_o push_v downward_a the_o

they_o say_v be_v the_o fault_n of_o the_o nurse_n who_o do_v not_o apply_v remedy_n fit_a to_o restore_v the_o fault_n i_o must_v confess_v that_o remedy_n do_v much_o avail_v to_o the_o recovery_n of_o the_o foresaid_a malady_n and_o do_v much_o avail_n to_o the_o heal_n of_o that_o disease_n &_o mar_v of_o the_o belly_n but_o to_o restore_v it_o to_o such_o a_o estate_n as_o it_o be_v in_o
