temper the heat Furthermore the necke that is betweene these two foresayde mouthes in her concauitie hath many inuolutions and pleates ioyned together in the maner of Rose leaues before they be fully spread or ripe and so they be shut togeather as a Purse mouth so that nothing may passe foorth but vrin vntil the time of chylding Also about the middle of this necke be certain veynes in Maydens the which in tyme of deflouring be corrupt broken Furthermore in the sides of the vtter mouth of the mouth are two testicles or stones and also two vessels of sparme shorter then mans vessels and in time of coyt the womans sperme is shed downè into the bottome of the Matrix Also from the Lyuer there commeth to the Matrix many veynes bringing to the childe nourishing at the time of a womans beeing with childe and those veynes at suche time as the Matrix is voyde bring therto superfluities from certayne members of the body whereof are ingendred womens flowres c. And forasmuche as it hath pleased almightie God to geue the knowledge of these his mysteries and workes vnto his Creatures in this present worlde Here I purpose to declare what thing Embreon is and his creation The noble Philosophers as Galen Auicen Bartholomeus and diuers other writing vpon this matter say That Embreon is a thing ingendred in the mothers wombe the original wherof is the sparme of the man and the woman of the which is made by the might and power of God in the mothers wombe a chylde as hereafter more at large shal be declared First the feelde of generation called the Matrix or the mother is knowen in the anatomie whose place is properly betwixt the Bladder and Longaon in the womā in which place is sowen by the tillage of man a couenable matter of kindly heate for kindly heate is cause efficeens bothe of dooing and working and spirite that geueth vertue to the body and gouerneth and ruleth that vertue the which séede of generation commeth from al the partes of the body both of the man and the woman with consent wyl of al members and is shed into the place of conceyuing where through the vertue of Nature it is gathered together in the selles of the matrix or the mother in whom by the way of the working of mans seede and by the way of suffering of the womans seede mixte together so that eche of them worketh in other and suffereth in other there is ingendred Embreon And further it is to be noted that this sparme that commeth both of man and woman is made gathered of the most best and purest drops of blood in all the body and by the labour and chafing of the testikles or stones this blood is turned into another kinde and is made sparme And in man it is hotte white thicke wherfore it may not spread nor runne abroade of it selfe but runneth and taketh temperaunce of the womans sparme which hath contrarie qualities for the womans sparme is thinner colder and féebler And as some Authors holde opinion when this matter is gathered into the right side of the matrix then it happeneth a male kinde and likewise on the lefte the female and where the vertue is most there it sauoureth most And further it is to be noted that lyke as the Renet of the Chéese hath by him selfe the way or vertue of working so hath the mylke by waye of suffering and as the Renet and mylke make the chéese so doth the sparme of man and woman make the generation of Embreon of the which thing springeth by the vertue of kindly heate a certayne skinne or caule into the which it lappeth it selfe in where with afterwardes it is tyed to the mothers wombe the whiche couering commeth foorth with the byrth of the childe and if it happen that any of the skinne remaine after the byrth of the childe then is the woman in peril of her lyfe Furthermore it is sayde that of this Embreon is ingendred the Hart the Lyuer the Brayne Nerues veynes Arteirs Cordes Lygamentes Skinnes Gristles Bones receyuing to them by kindly vertue the menstrual blood of whiche is ingendred both fleshe and fatnes And as wryters say the fyrst thing that is shapen be the principals as is the Harte Lyuer and Brayne For of the Hart springeth the Arteirs of the Lyuer the Ueynes and of the Brayne the Nerues and when these are made Nature maketh shapeth Bones and grystles to kéepe saue them as the bones of the head for the Brayne the Brest bones and the Ribbes for the Harte and the Lyuer And after these springeth al other member one after another And thus is the childe bred foorth in four degrees as thus The first is when the sayde sparme or seede is at the fyrst as it were mylke The seconde is when it is turned from that kinde into another kinde is yet but as a lumpe of blood and this is called of Ypocras Fettus The thirde degrée is when the principals be shapen as the Hart lyuer and Brayne The fourth and laste as when al the other members be perfectly shapen then it receyueth the soule wyth life and breath and then it beginneth to moue it selfe alone Nowe in these foure degrees aforesayde in the fyrst as milke it continueth vij dayes in the seconde as Fettus ix dayes in the thirde as a lumpe of fleshe ingendring the principals the space of ix days and the fourth vnto the tyme of ful perfection of al the whole members is the space of xviij dayes So is there xlvj dayes from the day of conception vnto the day of ful perfection and receyuing of the soule as God best knoweth Now to come agayne to the Anatomie of the Hanches Then come we to Longaon otherwise called The tayle gutte whose substance is panniculer as of al the other bowels the length of it is of a spanne long stretching nigh to the Raynes his nether parte is called Annis that is to say The towel And about him is found two Muscles the one to open the other to shutte Also there is founde in him fiue veynes or braunches of veynes called vena emoraidales and they haue coliganes with the bladder wherefore they are partners in their greeues And when this Longaon is raysed vp then ye may sée the veynes and arteirs and senowes howe they be braunched and bounde downe to the nether partes The partes procéeding outwardly are Didimus Peritoneum the Yarde the Testikles and the Buttockes And fyrst it shal be spoken of the yarde or of mans generatiue members the whiche dureth vnto that parte that is called Peritoneum the which place is from the Coddes vnto the Fundament wherevpon is a seame Wherfore sayth the Philosopher Mans yard is in the ende and terme of the share The yarde is an official member and the tyller of mans generation compounde and made of skinne brawnes Tendons veynes arteirs senewes and great Lygaments and it hath in it food
