be_v never_o get_v by_o contagion_n and_o those_o that_o be_v by_o need_n not_o fear_v the_o take_n of_o any_o poisonous_a infection_n from_o without_o yet_o all_o childbed_n woman_n have_v a_o

may_v be_v right_o purge_v without_o the_o danger_n of_o a_o fever_n therefore_o these_o three_o thing_n must_v be_v inculcate_v to_o physician_n first_o that_o they_o prescribe_v a_o exact_a course_n of_o diet_n namely_o to_o feed_v of_o oatmeal_n caudle_n sometime_o of_o beer_n sometime_o of_o white_a wine_n and_o water_n mix_v together_o sometime_o of_o panada_n and_o other_o light_a thing_n for_o a_o week_n at_o least_o because_o they_o be_v much_o empty_v they_o may_v sup_v something_o the_o often_o but_o no_o solid_a or_o strong_a food_n must_v be_v give_v they_o for_o i_o diligent_o

shall_v be_v treat_v not_o only_o as_o grievous_o wound_v man_n but_o as_o have_v get_v a_o febrile_a indisposition_n from_o the_o disturb_a frame_n and_o temper_n of_o the_o blood_n because_o the_o

the_o three_o intention_n remain_v that_o the_o flux_n of_o the_o lochia_n may_v be_v continue_v by_o a_o gentle_a proritation_n of_o the_o blood_n the_o cure_n depart_v far_o from_o the_o method_n use_v in_o putrid_a fever_n for_o in_o this_o we_o must_v not_o expect_v that_o the_o blood_n touch_v with_o a_o febrile_a burn_a shall_v cool_v gradual_o and_o then_o that_o it_o shall_v conquer_v the_o adust_a recrement_n gather_v in_o its_o mass_n and_o separate_v they_o by_o crisis_n but_o rather_o as_o be_v do_v in_o a_o malignant_a fever_n assoon_o as_o the_o blood_n begin_v to_o be_v in_o
