the_o first_o point_n which_o be_v the_o change_n of_o the_o child_n that_o may_v easy_o come_v to_o pass_v because_o as_o soon_o as_o the_o child_n be_v bear_v and_o christen_v the_o mother_n present_o deliver_v it_o to_o the_o nurse_n to_o be_v carry_v into_o the_o country_n where_o the_o child_n be_v whole_o leave_v to_o the_o discretion_n of_o the_o nurse_n may_v by_o some_o ill_a chance_n be_v stifle_v over-lay_v be_v let_v fall_v and_o so_o come_v to_o a_o untimely_a death_n or_o else_o may_v be_v devour_v spoil_v or_o disfigure_v by_o some_o wild_a beast_n wolf_n or_o dog_n and_o then_o the_o nurse_n fear_v to_o be_v punish_v for_o her_o negligence_n may_v take_v another_o child_n into_o the_o place_n of_o it_o which_o can_v hardly_o ever_o be_v mark_v and_o distinguish_v and_o indeed_o when_o child_n grow_v somewhat_o big_a and_o be_v bring_v home_o from_o nurse_n if_o they_o prove_v not_o like_o their_o parent_n in_o body_n in_o condition_n and_o wit_n the_o proverb_n go_v that_o they_o be_v change_v at_o nurse_n which_o sometime_o may_v be_v true_a than_o they_o be_v aware_a of_o the_o historiographer_n report_n that_o arthebar_v king_n of_o the_o epirote_n be_v old_a have_v one_o only_a son_n who_o nurse_n be_v corrupt_v with_o great_a gift_n to_o change_v he_o and_o to_o take_v a_o gentleman_n son_n into_o his_o place_n but_o when_o the_o king_n be_v dead_a the_o nurse_n repent_v herself_o of_o this_o wickedness_n reveal_v the_o error_n whereupon_o ensue_v such_o terrible_a war_n between_o the_o lawful_a and_o the_o suppose_a son_n that_o both_o of_o they_o lose_v their_o life_n in_o a_o battle_n upon_o this_o occasion_n thomistus_n the_o seven_o king_n of_o the_o lacedaemonian_n leave_v two_o son_n behind_o he_o when_o he_o die_v the_o lacedaemonian_n choose_v the_o young_a of_o they_o for_o their_o king_n because_o he_o have_v be_v nurse_v by_o the_o queen_n his_o mother_n and_o reject_v the_o elder_a who_o have_v be_v bring_v up_o by_o a_o strange_a woman_n fear_v lest_o he_o have_v be_v change_v by_o his_o nurse_n 2._o for_o the_o second_o point_n which_o be_v natural_a affection_n without_o doubt_n that_o can_v be_v so_o earnest_a either_o from_o the_o mother_n towards_o the_o child_n or_o from_o the_o chlld_v towards_o the_o mother_n if_o she_o have_v not_o nurse_v he_o and_o give_v he_o suck_v for_o if_o she_o nurse_v he_o he_o suck_v and_o draw_v she_o own_o blood_n whereupon_o grow_v a_o familiar_a inwardnes_n and_o the_o child_n when_o he_o come_v to_o year_n of_o discretion_n find_v himself_o bind_v to_o his_o mother_n for_o many_o benefit_n both_o in_o that_o she_o have_v bear_v he_o nine_o month_n in_o her_o womb_n and_o also_o because_o she_o have_v nurse_v he_o watch_v he_o and_o often_o make_v he_o clean_o in_o recompense_v whereof_o he_o endeavour_n to_o show_v she_o a_o thousand_o delight_n to_o make_v she_o forget_v or_o take_v in_o good_a part_n so_o much_o care_n and_o pain_n as_o she_o have_v take_v with_o he_o he_o play_v a_o number_n of_o apish_a trick_n about_o she_o he_o kiss_v she_o stroke_v her_o hair_n nose_n and_o ear_n he_o flatter_v she_o he_o counterfeit_v anger_n and_o other_o passion_n and_o as_o he_o grow_v big_a he_o find_v other_o sport_n with_o she_o which_o cause_v that_o they_o bear_v one_o another_o such_o a_o affection_n as_o can_v be_v express_v &_o make_v that_o they_o can_v never_o be_v part_v when_o he_o be_v big_a and_o come_v to_o be_v wean_v if_o one_o chide_v his_o nurse_n he_o cry_v and_o stamp_v and_o if_o one_o offer_v to_o take_v he_o out_o of_o his_o nurse_n arm_n he_o will_v fly_v in_o their_o face_n and_o if_o it_o be_v possible_a he_o will_v even_o pull_v out_o their_o heart_n and_o all_o this_o proceed_v from_o that_o inward_a affection_n of_o the_o child_n to_o which_o no_o love_n can_v be_v compare_v and_o hereupon_o plato_n just_o say_v that_o child_n will_v never_o love_v their_o parent_n so_o well_o but_o that_o their_o father_n do_v often_o bear_v they_o in_o their_o arm_n and_o the_o mother_n give_v they_o suck_v at_o their_o own_o breast_n and_o hereof_o we_o have_v a_o memorable_a example_n in_o cornelius_n scipio_n who_o when_o he_o have_v condemn_v ten_o of_o his_o most_o valiant_a captain_n to_o death_n he_o will_v not_o hear_v his_o own_o brother_n scipio_n africanus_n entreat_v for_o they_o and_o yet_o grant_v their_o pardon_n to_o one_o that_o have_v be_v his_o foster-brother_n and_o suck_v the_o same_o nurse_n which_o be_v object_v to_o he_o by_o his_o own_o brother_n say_v that_o they_o have_v be_v bear_v both_o of_o one_o mother_n he_o answer_v he_o that_o his_o nurse-mother_n have_v deserve_v better_a of_o he_o than_o his_o own_o mother_n have_v do_v one_o of_o the_o family_n of_o the_o gracchi_n return_v from_o the_o war_n meet_v his_o own_o mother_n and_o his_o nurse_n together_o but_o he_o address_v himself_o first_o to_o his_o nurse_n present_v to_o her_o a_o girdle_n of_o gold_n and_o then_o to_o his_o mother_n a_o jewel_n of_o of_o silver_n which_o she_o take_v indign_o and_o rebuke_v he_o with_o reproach_n he_o reply_v i_o know_v mother_n that_o you_o bear_v i_o nine_o month_n in_o your_o womb_n yet_o that_o be_v out_o of_o necessity_n because_o you_o can_v do_v no_o otherwise_o but_o when_o i_o be_v bear_v than_o you_o forsake_v i_o and_o my_o nurse-mother_n willing_o entertain_v i_o carry_v i_o three_o year_n in_o her_o arm_n and_o nourish_v i_o with_o her_o own_o blood_n 3._o as_o for_o the_o manner_n and_o condition_n of_o the_o child_n there_o be_v no_o doubt_n to_o be_v make_v but_o that_o they_o be_v better_o breed_v and_o fashion_v by_o the_o mother_n than_o by_o the_o nurse_n for_o first_o it_o be_v deliver_v by_o learned_a writer_n that_o the_o manner_n and_o condition_n of_o the_o mind_n do_v follow_v the_o temperament_n of_o the_o body_n and_o the_o temperament_n arise_v out_o of_o the_o nourishment_n so_o that_o common_o such_o as_o the_o humour_n be_v such_o prove_v the_o manner_n hence_o must_v we_o conclude_v that_o the_o child_n that_o suck_v a_o nurse_n that_o be_v vicious_a and_o wicked_a suck_v also_o from_o she_o her_o fault_n and_o vice_n and_o beside_o when_o the_o child_n come_v to_o understanding_n and_o observe_v what_o the_o nurse_n speak_v and_o do_v he_o retain_v that_o say_v it_o after_o she_o and_o imitate_v she_o and_o that_o which_o be_v imprint_v from_o the_o infancy_n will_v hardly_o or_o never_o be_v root_v out_o for_o this_o cause_n plato_n warn_v we_o not_o to_o speak_v or_o show_v any_o thing_n before_o a_o child_n which_o be_v not_o decent_a and_o honest_a and_o aristotle_n forbid_v to_o let_v a_o child_n see_v any_o wanton_a or_o lascivious_a picture_n then_o to_o return_v to_o our_o nurse_n we_o may_v be_v assure_v that_o the_o milk_n wherewith_o the_o child_n be_v nourish_v two_o year_n together_o have_v as_o much_o power_n to_o make_v the_o child_n like_o the_o nurse_n both_o in_o body_n and_o mind_n as_o the_o seed_n of_o the_o parent_n have_v to_o make_v the_o child_n like_o they_o for_o although_o the_o child_n be_v bear_v of_o honest_a parent_n nevertheless_o the_o bad_a nurture_n of_o a_o wicked_a nurse_n will_v make_v the_o child_n vicious_a and_o wicked_a for_o as_o the_o proverb_n be_v nurture_n prevail_v more_o than_o nature_n this_o may_v be_v plain_o observe_v in_o all_o thing_n that_o have_v life_n for_o a_o fair_a and_o flourish_a tree_n which_o have_v be_v breed_v in_o a_o good_a and_o fat_a ground_n if_o it_o be_v transplant_v into_o a_o barren_a ground_n become_v a_o shrub_n and_o bear_v no_o fruit_n that_o be_v good_a and_o tasteful_a likewise_o the_o grain_n that_o be_v sow_v in_o good_a ground_n will_v bear_v a_o fair_a and_o odoriferous_a flower_n but_o if_o it_o be_v cast_v into_o bad_a ground_n it_o will_v bring_v forth_o a_o bastard_n flower_n without_o any_o good_a or_o please_a smell_n it_o be_v report_v that_o a_o certain_a child_n be_v nourish_v with_o the_o milk_n of_o a_o bitch_n but_o he_o will_v rise_v in_o the_o night_n and_o howl_v with_o other_o dog_n plato_n go_v about_o to_o give_v a_o reason_n why_o alcibiades_n be_v so_o hardy_a although_o he_o be_v a_o athenian_a who_o natural_o be_v mild_a and_o timorous_a resolve_v it_o thus_o because_o the_o say_v alcibiades_n have_v be_v nurse_v by_o a_o lacedaemonian_a woman_n which_o be_v a_o very_a stout_a and_o valiant_a nation_n 4._o as_o for_o the_o imperfection_n of_o the_o body_n which_o child_n may_v borrow_v from_o their_o nurse_n although_o they_o be_v very_o many_o yet_o consider_v only_o those_o which_o the_o corpulency_n and_o disease_n of_o the_o nurse_n may_v bring_v they_o
