rehearse_v many_o more_o use_n if_o we_o will_v speak_v more_o particular_o of_o this_o matter_n whereof_o we_o mean_v to_o speak_v but_o general_o as_o also_o of_o all_o the_o rest_n that_o concern_v

of_o the_o profit_n and_o use_v of_o both_o to_o the_o end_n we_o may_v daily_o learn_v the_o better_a to_o know_v the_o great_a power_n skill_n wisdom_n goodness_n and_o providence_n of_o he_o that_o

of_o two_o point_n well_o worthy_a the_o note_n concern_v the_o place_n where_o god_n have_v seat_v they_o use_v first_o they_o be_v there_o place_v where_o they_o serve_v to_o shroud_v and_o to_o defend_v the_o noble_a and_o most_o necessary_a part_n for_o life_n that_o be_v in_o the_o breast_n namely_o the_o heart_n and_o the_o lung_n for_o they_o be_v set_v before_o they_o to_o countergard_v and_o keep_v they_o both_o from_o over_o great_a heat_n and_o from_o excessive_a cold_n and_o from_o many_o other_o inconvenience_n and_o as_o they_o serve_v for_o the_o heat_n of_o the_o heart_n so_o

their_o young_a one_o but_o only_o to_o nourish_v their_o body_n with_o food_n until_o they_o be_v able_a to_o feed_v and_o govern_v themselves_o afterward_o both_o sire_n and_o damn_n and_o little_a

but_o with_o their_o mother_n own_o blood_n receive_v by_o the_o navel_n which_o be_v in_o the_o midst_n of_o the_o body_n but_o god_n have_v make_v such_o a_o agreement_n between_o the_o womb_n in_o which_o the_o little_a child_n be_v nourish_v in_o his_o mother_n belly_n and_o betwixt_o her_o breast_n that_o that_o blood_n wherewith_o the_o infant_n be_v feed_v before_o it_o be_v bear_v

that_o be_v more_o fit_n to_o nourish_v it_o or_o more_o natural_a see_v it_o be_v the_o accustom_a and_o usual_a sustenance_n neither_o be_v there_o any_o difference_n but_o only_o in_o that_o it_o

it_o be_v needful_a that_o it_o shall_v have_v a_o convenient_a and_o pleasant_a taste_n for_o the_o mouth_n that_o receive_v it_o as_o also_o it_o be_v very_o requisite_a that_o it_o shall_v be_v of_o that_o colour_n which_o it_o receive_v in_o the_o pap_n for_o it_o will_v be_v strange_a to_o see_v the_o infant_n draw_v blood_n from_o his_o mother_n breast_n to_o have_v his_o throat_n full_a of_o it_o and_o his_o mouth_n bloody_a all_o these_o thing_n show_v well_o that_o the_o prophet_n have_v good_a cause_n to_o say_v that_o the_o mouth_n of_o little_a infant_n preach_v the_o praise_n of_o god_n providence_n and_o confound_v his_o enemy_n for_o when_o that_o food_n which_o god_n give_v to_o nourish_v they_o in_o their_o mother_n womb_n can_v feed_v they_o no_o more_o there_o it_o have_v pipe_n whereby_o to_o retire_v to_o that_o place_n in_o which_o it_o may_v perform_v the_o ●ame_n duty_n and_o that_o so_o fit_o that_o if_o that_o blood_n which_o be_v turn_v into_o milk_n do_v descend_v as_o it_o ascend_v by_o vein_n which_o pass_v from_o the_o womb_n to_o the_o breast_n the_o providence_n of_o god_n will_v not_o so_o manifest_o appear_v as_o it_o do_v and_o therefore_o we_o see_v by_o experience_n that_o so_o long_o as_o the_o child_n be_v nourish_v in_o his_o mother_n womb_n there_o be_v no_o milk_n in_o the_o breast_n but_o after_o it_o be_v bear_v the_o blood_n that_o run_v even_o unto_o the_o womb_n ascend_v upward_o by_o vein_n make_v a_o good_a long_a journey_n before_o it_o come_v to_o the_o breast_n white_v for_o these_o vein_n reach_v up_o hard_a to_o the_o throat_n on_o every_o side_n insomuch_o that_o the_o blood_n which_o they_o carry_v to_o the_o pap_n ascend_v above_o the_o breast_n and_o then_o descend_v into_o they_o to_o this_o end_n that_o through_o the_o length_n of_o time_n wherein_o it_o abide_v in_o the_o vein_n it_o may_v have_v more_o leisure_n to_o be_v the_o better_o wrought_v and_o to_o be_v turn_v into_o

also_o by_o the_o mean_n of_o that_o kernelly_n flesh_n whereof_o they_o be_v compound_v for_o it_o be_v of_o a_o whitish_a colour_n that_o it_o may_v give_v the_o same_o colour_n to_o the_o milk_n whereof_o the_o pap_n be_v the_o vessel_n so_o that_o here_o we_o may_v the_o better_a know_v as_o we_o touch_v before_o why_o god_n by_o his_o providence_n make_v the_o breast_n of_o that_o matter_n and_o colour_n whereof_o they_o consist_v now_o we_o have_v further_a to_o note_v another_o point_n wherein_o god_n have_v very_o well_o provide_v for_o the_o comfort_n of_o woman_n as_o it_o be_v a_o recompense_n for_o the_o pain_n and_o travail_n which_o they_o have_v both_o in_o the_o bear_n and_o bring_v up_o of_o their_o child_n namely_o that_o while_o a_o woman_n be_v withchilde_n and_o

the_o child_n make_v whether_o she_o bear_v it_o in_o her_o belly_n or_o give_v it_o suck_v with_o her_o breast_n wherein_o we_o see_v a_o marvellous_a work_n of_o god_n for_o it_o be_v all_o one_o
