of_o fever_n of_o woman_n in_o childbed_n vulgar_a experience_n abundant_o testify_v that_o the_o fever_n of_o woman_n in_o childbed_n be_v very_o dangerous_a above_o the_o nature_n of_o our_o

these_o three_o thing_n to_o wit_n first_o concern_v the_o nourishment_n of_o the_o foetus_fw-la or_o of_o the_o generation_n of_o milk_n both_o in_o the_o womb_n and_o in_o the_o breast_n and_o of_o

shall_v speak_v of_o the_o fever_n of_o woman_n in_o childbed_n to_o wit_n both_o the_o lacteal_n and_o that_o call_v putrid_a which_o by_o reason_n of_o its_o mortality_n deserve_v to_o be_v call_v malignant_a first_o the_o milk_n and_o nutritive_a humour_n heap_v together_o in_o the_o uterine_n part_v for_o the_o nourishment_n of_o the_o foetus_fw-la be_v by_o nature_n alike_o though_o they_o differ_v somewhat_o in_o consistency_n the_o milk_n indeed_o be_v the_o thick_a because_o be_v to_o be_v receive_v in_o the_o mouth_n it_o ought_v to_o be_v digest_v in_o the_o stomach_n and_o afterward_o it_o be_v more_o tender_a portion_n to_o be_v convey_v into_o the_o mass_n of_o blood_n the_o other_o nourishable_a humour_n be_v more_o thin_a and_o like_a to_o distil_a water_n of_o

among_o author_n by_o what_o ductus_n that_o humour_n be_v convey_v both_o into_o the_o breast_n and_o into_o the_o placenta_n of_o the_o womb._n some_o say_v that_o the_o milk_n be_v engender_v only_o from_o the_o blood_n free_o concoct_v in_o the_o gland_n which_o nevertheless_o do_v not_o seem_v probable_a by_o reason_n of_o the_o immense_a spend_n of_o milk_n which_o do_v not_o consist_v with_o the_o blood_n other_o affirm_v that_o the_o chyle_n or_o lacteal_v humour_n be_v convey_v immediate_o into_o both_o receptacle_n from_o the_o viscera_n of_o concoction_n through_o occult_a

second_o as_o to_o what_o regard_v the_o menses_fw-la suppress_v during_o the_o time_n of_o be_v with_o child_n and_o the_o lochia_n plentiful_o flow_v after_o childbirth_n we_o say_v that_o after_o the_o foetus_fw-la be_v conceive_v the_o menses_fw-la be_v stop_v by_o divine_a appointment_n because_o their_o flow_v often_o bring_v abortion_n and_o in_o regard_n the_o vessel_n be_v empty_v by_o a_o continual_a exsudation_n of_o the_o nutritive_a juice_n into_o the_o part_n of_o the_o womb_n the_o mass_n of_o blood_n do_v not_o easy_o arise_v into_o turgescency_n to_o be_v appease_v by_o a_o

though_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n the_o menses_fw-la stop_v while_n woman_n be_v with_o child_n because_o far_o less_o of_o the_o nutritive_a humour_n at_o that_o time_n be_v employ_v for_o milk_n deprave_v the_o blood_n much_o more_o than_o the_o same_o be_v wont_a when_o restrain_v during_o the_o time_n of_o gve_v suck_v nay_o from_o those_o be_v long_o suppress_v in_o the_o first_o state_n a_o venomous_a taint_n as_o it_o be_v be_v communicate_v to_o the_o mass_n of_o blood_n which_o unless_o it_o be_v purge_v off_o present_o after_o childbirth_n by_o a_o long_o flow_v of_o the_o lochia_n it_o produce_v sore_a and_o very_a malignant_a affect_v wherefore_o to_o give_v my_o opinion_n of_o the_o flow_a lochia_n i_o say_v that_o that_o haemorrhagie_n immediate_o proceed_v from_o those_o vessel_n be_v break_v by_o which_o the_o placenta_n stick_v to_o the_o womb_n and_o that_o by_o this_o way_n the_o blood_n and_o excrementitious_a humour_n partly_o heap_v together_o about_o the_o womb_n during_o the_o time_n of_o be_v with_o child_n and_o partly_o flow_v from_o the_o whole_a mass_n of_o blood_n be_v evacuate_v to_o wit_n whilst_o the_o womb_n first_o swell_v in_o a_o bulk_n fall_v present_o after_o delivery_n and_o be_v contract_v into_o a_o less_o space_n the_o blood_n be_v copious_o express_v from_o the_o vessel_n that_o be_v open_a in_o it_o and_o moreover_o in_o as_o much_o as_o during_o the_o suppression_n of_o the_o menses_fw-la the_o mass_n of_o blood_n be_v imbue_v with_o very_o fermentative_a particle_n assoon_o as_o after_o childbirth_n the_o mouth_n of_o the_o vessel_n be_v open_a present_o as_o though_o a_o large_a flow_v of_o the_o menses_fw-la be_v at_o hand_n the_o whole_a blood_n ferment_n even_o as_o new_a wine_n in_o a_o bottle_n

of_o any_o error_n it_o be_v stop_v before_o the_o mass_n of_o blood_n be_v cleanse_v enough_o by_o such_o a_o efflorescence_n present_o a_o very_a dangerous_a fever_n with_o a_o horrible_a
