these_o six_o follow_a way_n as_o first_o a_o false_a conception_n have_v no_o ordinary_a nor_o periodical_a motion_n neither_o do_v it_o stir_v from_o side_n to_o side_n except_o it_o be_v press_v second_o in_o a_o false_a conception_n the_o belly_n be_v hard_a and_o the_o foot_n be_v much_o more_o swell_v three_o the_o woman_n be_v more_o heavy_a and_o unweeldy_a and_o not_o so_o nimble_a as_o with_o a_o true_a conception_n four_o the_o breast_n swell_v not_o so_o much_o as_o in_o a_o true_a conception_n five_o the_o whole_a body_n grow_v soft_a and_o consume_v away_o in_o a_o false_a conception_n six_o a_o false_a conception_n may_v be_v move_v in_o three_o month_n but_o the_o child_n stir_v not_o till_o after_o three_o month_n or_o usual_o in_o the_o four_o month_n and_o again_o
