necessity_n of_o draw_v out_o the_o child_n which_o happen_v with_o success_n as_o afterward_o the_o afterbirth_n according_a to_o the_o ordinary_a course_n but_o yet_o she_o feel_v some_o pain_n when_o feel_v about_o the_o circuit_n of_o her_o navel_n a_o little_a to_o the_o side_n of_o the_o liver_n i_o find_v a_o move_a hardness_n much_o like_o a_o child_n head_n which_o i_o also_o demonstrate_v to_o the_o midwife_n whereby_o we_o judge_v the_o woman_n be_v not_o whole_o deliver_v so_o i_o put_v my_o hand_n again_o into_o the_o womb_n and_o diligent_o search_v the_o whole_a concavity_n of_o the_o matrix_fw-la i_o feel_v the_o entrance_n of_o the_o right_a a_o little_a open_v into_o which_o i_o present_o get_v my_o forefinger_n afterward_o another_o and_o then_o my_o whole_a hand_n with_o which_o i_o take_v out_o of_o the_o same_o more_o than_o two_o pound_n of_o congeal_a and_o in_o some_o measure_n harden_v blood_n and_o then_o the_o aforesaid_a round_a hardness_n be_v no_o more_o feel_v this_o experience_n than_o affirm_v that_o the_o entrance_n of_o this_o trunk_n or_o pipe_n of_o the_o matrix_fw-la can_v suffer_v a_o great_a stretch_n but_o here_o be_v two_o difficulty_n yet_o remain_v to_o be_v resolve_v the_o first_o be_v that_o if_o this_o part_n have_v be_v open_a in_o that_o moment_n when_o our_o child_n pass_v than_o it_o will_v not_o have_v occasion_v the_o ulceration_n which_o be_v find_v in_o the_o matrix_fw-la the_o second_o be_v that_o this_o ulceration_n cover_v the_o whole_a circumference_n of_o the_o bottom_n of_o this_o part_n and_o that_o the_o entrance_n of_o which_o we_o have_v already_o speak_v be_v in_o the_o side_n of_o the_o say_a bottom_n the_o solution_n of_o these_o two_o point_n be_v easy_a the_o surgeon_n who_o be_v use_v to_o deliver_v woman_n and_o the_o midwife_n know_v that_o in_o all_o common_a and_o natural_a delivery_n the_o child_n always_o come_v forth_o before_o that_o the_o circumference_n of_o the_o inward_a open_v of_o the_o matrix_fw-la be_v as_o big_a as_o their_o head_n and_o that_o the_o same_o passage_n do_v enlarge_v itself_o at_o the_o same_o time_n they_o pass_v through_o it_o it_o may_v then_o be_v that_o our_o child_n stick_v fast_o in_o the_o pipe_n or_o trunk_n of_o the_o which_o i_o have_v already_o speak_v before_o the_o impress_v of_o the_o water_n cause_v a_o great_a open_v and_o that_o so_o in_o its_o passage_n make_v a_o partition_n in_o the_o whole_a which_o possible_o give_v the_o first_o occasion_n of_o the_o ulceration_n whereof_o we_o have_v treat_v and_o that_o this_o separation_n most_o likely_a be_v make_v upon_o the_o side_n before_o the_o afterbirth_n be_v join_v fast_o to_o the_o matrix_fw-la rather_o than_o any_o where_o else_o by_o reason_n that_o be_v always_o moist_a and_o therefore_o it_o follow_v by_o reason_n to_o be_v more_o easy_a in_o this_o place_n then_o any_o other_o i_o will_v not_o make_v any_o demur_n in_o explain_v the_o generation_n of_o that_o stony_a body_n or_o substance_n find_v in_o the_o bottom_n of_o the_o matrix_fw-la it_o be_v evident_a by_o experience_n that_o in_o the_o ulcer_n which_o be_v not_o well_o cleanse_v and_o purify_v the_o matter_n and_o filth_n which_o remain_v upon_o the_o side_n from_o time_n to_o time_n produce_v by_o succession_n a_o strong_a hardness_n but_o every_o one_o may_v doubt_v how_o the_o leg_n of_o our_o infant_n which_o in_o all_o probability_n be_v first_o bear_v shall_v have_v place_v themselves_o in_o such_o order_n that_o they_o follow_v the_o motion_n of_o the_o water_n and_o so_o at_o the_o same_o time_n be_v come_v into_o the_o trunk_n or_o pipe_n see_v they_o be_v not_o natural_o crooked_a and_o mollify_v in_o the_o matrix_fw-la moreover_o that_o under_o the_o divers_a motion_n of_o this_o child_n it_o be_v so_o as_o by_o chance_n place_v in_o order_n the_o knee_n which_o ordinary_o be_v close_o join_v together_o may_v be_v first_o pass_v through_o so_o that_o the_o leg_n lie_v close_o about_o the_o buttock_n can_v not_o possible_o stop_v the_o rest_n of_o the_o body_n however_o it_o be_v it_o be_v apparent_a the_o head_n come_v last_o because_o it_o rest_v against_o the_o bottom_n of_o the_o matrix_fw-la and_o the_o disposition_n in_o which_o the_o right_a arm_n be_v find_v do_v declare_v that_o it_o serve_v for_o a_o form_n to_o hinder_v the_o head_n from_o be_v stop_v in_o its_o passage_n which_o according_a to_o many_o author_n be_v a_o very_a necessary_a circumstance_n in_o those_o delivery_n where_o the_o child_n come_v forth_o with_o their_o foot_n first_o see_v here_o then_o the_o passage_n of_o this_o child_n out_o of_o the_o matrix_fw-la sufficient_o explain_v so_o that_o what_o happen_v thereafter_o be_v now_o to_o be_v examine_v concern_v the_o time_n it_o stay_v in_o its_o mother_n body_n and_o principal_o how_o it_o be_v conserve_v there_o therefore_o first_o we_o must_v take_v this_o for_o certain_a that_o the_o body_n of_o creature_n be_v preserve_v from_o corruption_n either_o by_o nourishment_n which_o maintain_v life_n or_o by_o some_o certain_a effect_n which_o hinder_v the_o dissolution_n after_o death_n and_o it_o may_v well_o be_v that_o both_o these_o cause_n do_v concur_v in_o conservation_n of_o our_o child_n for_o there_o be_v nothing_o to_o hinder_v our_o believe_v that_o for_o some_o time_n it_o continue_v receive_v the_o blood_n through_o the_o vessel_n of_o the_o navel_n for_o its_o nourishment_n see_v we_o experience_v every_o day_n that_o in_o some_o woman_n labour_n the_o afterbirth_n stick_v fast_o to_o the_o matrix_fw-la so_o that_o they_o be_v force_v to_o separate_v it_o with_o finger_n and_o sometime_o pull_v it_o out_o by_o piece-meal_n this_o be_v a_o observation_n that_o can_v true_o be_v allege_v against_o if_o this_o lump_n can_v remain_v fast_o annex_v to_o the_o matrix_fw-la after_o the_o child_n be_v bring_v forth_o into_o the_o world_n than_o it_o be_v clear_a enough_o that_o it_o be_v so_o in_o the_o case_n of_o margaret_n because_o her_o child_n continue_v enjoy_v its_o first_o nourishment_n for_o the_o outward_a air_n can_v not_o touch_v the_o string_n and_o therefore_o cause_v no_o hindrance_n in_o the_o motion_n of_o the_o blood_n wherewith_o it_o be_v full_a and_o it_o be_v undoubtable_a that_o the_o child_n be_v preserve_v some_o time_n by_o this_o mean_n by_o reason_n margaret_n void_v no_o blood_n at_o that_o time_n when_o the_o child_n pass_v through_o the_o matrix_fw-la into_o the_o concavity_n of_o the_o belly_n but_o to_o the_o contrary_a some_o week_n after_o when_o she_o be_v give_v open_v and_o force_v medicine_n she_o void_v some_o lump_n or_o clodder_n of_o blood_n which_o most_o apparent_o cause_v some_o partition_n in_o some_o part_n of_o the_o afterbirth_n by_o that_o which_o already_o have_v be_v say_v we_o may_v suggest_v that_o our_o child_n may_v be_v nourish_v about_o two_o month_n without_o the_o matrix_fw-la in_o the_o same_o manner_n as_o when_o he_o be_v in_o the_o same_o and_o it_o be_v to_o be_v comprehend_v that_o that_o same_o wherewith_o it_o be_v cover_v be_v that_o which_o preserve_v it_o from_o corruption_n after_o its_o death_n shelter_v it_o from_o the_o pierce_a air_n moisture_n and_o other_o beginning_n of_o corruption_n here_o also_o may_v arise_v a_o doubt_n whether_o it_o cease_v to_o live_v by_o reason_n of_o the_o want_n of_o that_o motion_n of_o the_o blood_n which_o it_o draw_v to_o he_o by_o the_o string_n or_o that_o it_o continue_v receive_v nourishment_n some_o other_o way_n but_o as_o the_o conclusion_n upon_o this_o doubt_n be_v very_o dubious_a i_o shall_v content_v myself_o to_o show_v the_o reason_n upon_o these_o two_o circumstance_n and_o leave_v the_o reader_n to_o side_n with_o which_o he_o please_v and_o first_o forasmuch_o as_o concern_v the_o generation_n of_o the_o crust_n it_o be_v not_o certain_a that_o it_o have_v sufficient_a thickness_n to_o nourish_v our_o child_n before_o the_o afterbirth_n be_v separate_v but_o we_o may_v say_v that_o therein_o be_v no_o impossibility_n because_o the_o water_n flow_v forth_o in_o her_o labour_n and_o the_o afterbirth_n remain_v in_o the_o matrix_fw-la that_o which_o be_v find_v fleshy_a in_o the_o crust_n can_v be_v no_o other_o thing_n then_o the_o trunk_n or_o pipe_n in_o the_o which_o our_o child_n have_v place_v itself_o and_o this_o place_n or_o part_n be_v thick_a enough_o to_o withstand_v the_o breathe_n which_o issue_v from_o the_o child_n as_o it_o expire_v and_o although_o many_o witness_n have_v assert_v that_o our_o child_n do_v natural_o stir_v until_o the_o eighteen_o year_n they_o must_v confess_v that_o it_o be_v no_o otherwise_o then_o as_o margaret_n turn_v herself_o from_o one_o side_n to_o the_o other_o which_o do_v evidence_n that_o it_o be_v nothing_o but_o that_o motion_n the_o which_o may_v be_v see_v in_o the_o molae_n but_o it_o may_v be_v say_v and_o very_o true_o that_o margaret_n every_o nine_o month_n feel_v almost_o travel_v pang_n but_o that_o do_v not_o prove_v that_o these_o pain_n be_v the_o effect_n of_o those_o endeavour_n which_o the_o child_n do_v to_o be_v bring_v forth_o it_o be_v find_v out_o to_o be_v no_o otherwise_o cause_v than_o by_o the_o moisture_n cast_v up_o by_o the_o mother_n and_o that_o be_v sufficient_a to_o moisten_v these_o part_n at_o all_o time_n so_o that_o the_o child_n may_v fall_v to_o the_o bottom_n of_o the_o matrix_fw-la and_o so_o cause_v the_o pain_n final_o it_o must_v be_v consent_v that_o the_o child_n can_v not_o live_v without_o sustenance_n from_o the_o navel_n string_n first_o because_o the_o same_o be_v annex_v unto_o the_o afterbirth_n can_v receive_v no_o nourishment_n otherwise_o then_o in_o the_o same_o manner_n as_o the_o molae_n second_o the_o skin_n and_o flesh_n be_v tincture_v with_o blood_n it_o be_v credible_a that_o their_o vessel_n be_v anatomize_v with_o the_o cawl_n three_o be_v at_o that_o time_n a_o part_n and_o member_n of_o the_o mother_n need_v no_o other_o respiration_n then_o from_o its_o self_n four_o be_v extreme_a hard_a and_o great_a it_o may_v be_v judge_v that_o it_o supply_v the_o place_n of_o the_o afterbirth_n but_o all_o these_o circumstance_n have_v other_o which_o contradict_v they_o our_o child_n be_v not_o so_o perfect_o fast_o to_o the_o cawl_n as_o the_o molae_n be_v to_o the_o matrix_fw-la there_o be_v a_o thick_a crust_n between_o they_o the_o anatomy_n be_v not_o perfect_o observe_v by_o all_o that_o open_v the_o body_n of_o margaret_n the_o child_n which_o do_v not_o respire_v while_o it_o be_v in_o the_o matrix_fw-la must_v of_o necessity_n transpire_v through_o the_o heart_n vein_n of_o the_o mother_n and_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o the_o blood_n through_o these_o vessel_n do_v not_o circum-ambulate_a in_o our_o child_n because_o it_o do_v not_o wax_v according_o and_o it_o be_v well_o enough_o know_v that_o those_o humour_n which_o have_v lose_v their_o natural_a motion_n be_v gather_v or_o congeal_v in_o any_o part_n of_o the_o body_n of_o necessity_n must_v generate_v a_o extraordinary_a motion_n which_o either_o ripen_v they_o or_o they_o stay_v in_o the_o same_o form_n which_o generate_v a_o hardness_n but_o howsoever_o it_o be_v if_o our_o child_n do_v live_v after_o the_o ulceration_n of_o the_o afterbirth_n than_o the_o manner_n and_o case_n in_o which_o we_o find_v the_o child_n demonstrate_v that_o the_o child_n have_v be_v a_o long_a time_n dead_a and_o that_o its_o preservation_n proceed_v from_o nothing_o else_o but_o the_o crust_n wherewith_o it_o be_v cover_v i_o speak_v nothing_o of_o the_o bigness_n of_o the_o nail_n for_o it_o be_v know_v they_o grow_v after_o death_n and_o pass_v by_o all_o superfluous_a circumstance_n the_o first_o consideration_n which_o may_v in_o this_o case_n be_v make_v be_v that_o the_o imperial_a cut_n be_v not_o to_o be_v despise_v as_o some_o new_a author_n do_v affirm_v see_v there_o may_v be_v false_a conception_n and_o child_n themselves_o generate_v in_o the_o trunk_n or_o pipe_n of_o the_o matrix_fw-la as_o well_o as_o those_o conceive_v in_o the_o matrix_fw-la can_v cast_v they_o out_o the_o second_o consideration_n that_o if_o in_o due_a time_n this_o operation_n have_v be_v use_v the_o child_n may_v have_v be_v pull_v out_o and_o margaret_z not_o have_v suffer_v and_o under-gone_a so_o many_o pain_n which_o she_o suffer_v so_o
