and_o hence_o four_o impediment_n of_o conception_n arise_v first_o the_o reception_n of_o the_o seed_n be_v hinder_v by_o many_o cause_n as_o immature_n age_n when_o by_o reason_n of_o the_o narrowness_n of_o the_o genital_a passage_n the_o woman_n can_v admit_v the_o man_n yard_n or_o at_o least_o not_o without_o great_a pain_n which_o make_v her_o dislike_n copulation_n and_o old_a age_n have_v the_o same_o effect_n for_o in_o elderly_a virgin_n the_o genital_a part_n for_o want_n of_o use_n be_v render_v so_o straight_o that_o they_o can_v easy_o receive_v the_o virile_a

and_o draw_v it_o into_o its_o cavity_n from_o whence_o and_o from_o mixture_n of_o both_o the_o seed_n conception_n arise_v the_o reception_n of_o the_o seed_n may_v be_v also_o hinder_v by_o swell_n

also_o hinder_v by_o reason_n the_o seed_n be_v not_o retain_v upon_o the_o account_n of_o too_o great_a moisture_n of_o the_o womb_n namely_o when_o it_o be_v fill_v with_o many_o excrementitious_a
