the_o help_n of_o respiration_n i_o shall_v deliver_v it_o yet_o more_o plain_o how_o come_v it_o to_o pass_v that_o the_o foetus_fw-la be_v now_o bear_v and_o continue_v yet_o cover_v over_o with_o his_o entire_a membrane_n and_o abide_v still_o in_o his_o water_n can_v subsist_v for_o some_o hour_n space_n without_o any_o danger_n of_o suffocation_n and_o yet_o be_v shift_v out_o of_o those_o

he_o will_v expire_v for_o want_v of_o breath_n whosoever_o do_v careful_o consider_v these_o thing_n and_o look_v narrow_o into_o the_o nature_n of_o air_n will_v i_o suppose_v easy_o grant_v that_o the_o air_n be_v allow_v to_o animal_n neither_o for_o refrigeration_n nor_o nutrition_n sake_n for_o it_o be_v a_o try_a thing_n that_o the_o foetus_fw-la be_v soon_o suffocate_v after_o he_o have_v enjoy_v the_o air_n then_o when_o he_o be_v quite_o exclude_v from_o it_o as_o if_o the_o heat_n within_o he_o be_v rather_o inflame_v then_o quench_v by_o the_o air_n but_o thus_o much_o we_o have_v

to_o come_v to_o pass_v beside_o the_o forementioned_a necessity_n of_o respiration_n and_o want_v of_o sustenance_n because_o the_o foetus_fw-la be_v grow_v big_a do_v press_v out_o by_o his_o
