none of these thinges happen / with all diligens and payne it muste be prouyded that the secondyne be expelled ¶ Yf retention of it come by weakenesse of the laborer throughe long trauell / then must she be recomforted and strēgthed with good cōfortable meates drynkes which may enharte her / as brothe made of the yolke of egges / or with good olde wyne good fat and tydy flesshe / or byrdes / hennes flesshe / capon / partrige / pyginnes / and suche lyke ¶ And yf retentiō of this secondine come / because the place is cōtract to gether agayn / otherelles that the matrice is swollen for longe payne / then must be vsed such thinges to prouoke it oute / the whiche do make the way slypper / sople / and easy for it to procede / with the oyles or oyntementes spoken of before / as oyle of whyte lyllies / of maiorā / and of blewe lyllies Item the beryes of iumper or galbanum beaten to powder and dronke with luke warmed wyne / wyll cause the same to yssue out Itē sothernwood / or elles penyryall soden in wyne / and the decoction dronken / is of the same vertue ¶ Item to suffume the secreates with the perfumes wrytten of before / is good for this purpose / the fume of the water / in whiche mallous holyoke / and berefutte vt soden in / receaued beneth / is lyke good Also to washe that partes ī water in which is sodē branne / or to holde a lyttell bagfull of soden branne to the place / and therewythall to sooke the place / is very profytable ¶ But yf the retention of the secondyne come by reason that it is entanglyd or fastened in some place of the matrice / so that it wyl not resolue ne lose then make a fume vnderneth of brymstone / yuie leues / and cresses or elles of cresses and fygges ¶ Also of all odoriferous and swete smellynge thynges as ambre / muske /

woman For to the nose sholde the sauour of nothynge come / but onlye of suche thynges / the whyche stynke or haue abhominable smell as asa fetida / casto rium / mans here or womans here burnt / pecockes fethers burnt Item in this case it shal be very good to make a perfume vnderneth of the houe of an asse / which thinges althoughe they be of yll sauoure / yet they be of such nature efficacie / that they occasionat not onely the secōdine / but also dead byrthes to procede come forth out of the matrice ¶ And in this case also let the womā with holde her brethe in warde in so muche as she can / for that shall dryue downewarde suche thynges as be in the bodyr to be expelled Item let her be prouoked to sneese with the pouder of eleborus or pepper put in the nose holdynge her mouthe and nose soo cloose as maye be ¶ Also the oyntment / whiche is called vnguentum Basilicon / conueyed into the matrice / is very good / for it mollifyeth the place and draweth out the secondine parforce / the whiche so soone as it is expelled / infude the oyle of rooses in to the same matrice Item roosewater tempered with a quantite of the pouder of holyoke / and dronke / is good to expell the secondine ¶ And yf it be so that any parte of the secondine do appeare / let the mydwyfe receaue it tenderlye / loosynge it oute fayre and softely leste it breake / and yf ye doubte that it wyll breake / then let the mydwyfe tye that parte of the whiche she hathe handfast to the womans legge or fote / not very strayght / leste it breake / nether very lax / lest it slyp in agayne / and then cause her to snese Then yf the secondine tarye or stycke / so that it come not quyckly forewarde / then loose it a lyttell a lyttell very tenderlye wrething it frome one syde to another / tyll such tyme as it be gottē oute / but euer beware of violent and hastye mouyng of it / lest that with the second byrth ye remoue the matrice also ¶ And yf in this meane whyle the women faynt or sowne by reasone of great payne ensuynge of the takynge a waye of this secondine / then muste ye minister such thinges to her the which comfort the head and the hart as be electuaries whiche are conficte with muske / ambre / and the confectiō of precious stones / as Diamargariton / and suche other Also suche thynges the whiche comforte the stomacke / as Diagalanga / Dia cinamomū / and such other which are alwaye in a readinesse at the apothecaries / the which thinges she shall receaue with wyne ¶ Item to remoue the secondine and to expel it take rue / horehownd / Sothernewood / and motherwort / of ethe lyke quantite / and then take so muche of the oyle of lyshes / as maye be sufficient to stype / moysten and soke the foresayd herbes in / put all this to gether into a glased potte couered with suche a couer that it haue a lyttell hole or vent aboue in the toppe of it / then set this pot ouer the fyre of coles / so that it boyle a whyle / then take it frome the fyre / and sette it vnder the stole where the woman sytteth made for the nonce hauyng a pype made for that purpose of the whiche the one ende ye shall put into the vent or hole of the couer to the pot the other ende must the partie receaue in to her bodye And so to syt cloosed rounde aboute with clothes / that no vapoure or ayre go forth of the potte hauing a fewe coles vnder it / to kepe it hote / and thus sytte the space of an houre or two / tyll such tyme as the secondyne moue and begynne to procede of his owne kynde And yf it be so that ye profette not this wayes / yet then laye this plaster on the bellye betwene the nauell and the secreates / of the whiche we shall speake hereafter / the whiche is of suche operation and efficacite that it expelleth deade byrthes yf for all this the secondyne come not forewarde / then leaue it / and vse no more medicines ne remedies to that purpose but let it alone / for with in fewe dayes it wyll putrifye and corrupte / and dyssolue into a watery substance / thycke lyke bryne / or other fex myxed with water / so yssue forthe Howheit in the meane whyle it wyll put the woman to great payne in
