BUT as far as I have found them mistaken, since _Mortal Eyes_ cannot see

beyond their HORIZON, nor the best of Men exceed the natural Limits of

_human Frailty_, I have thought it my _Duty_ to forewarn POSTERITY of

their _Mistakes_, not only according to the laudable CUSTOM of the

_Ancients_, but also according to my plain _Notion_ of the genuine

Nature or true CHARITY; which I think consists not in contemning,

detracting and calumniating _one another_, but rather in cleansing

SCIENCES from the _Dross of Errors_, that so the _Right Way_ may be

pav’d to our _Successors_ by a continued _Series_ of Time, which may be

effectually done by _Many_, that cannot possibly be accomplished by

_One_; because of the _Brevity_ of LIFE.

UPON the whole, it is most certain that TRUTH is known _but of a few_;

whereas false _Opinions_ go current in the Stream with the rest of the

World: Nay, TRUTH scarce yet ever carried it by _Vote_ in any respect,

insomuch, that the most evident Testimonies of Sense, too often yield

place to imbib’d Opinions, and Men blindly reject the manifest Evidence

of their own Faculties, by which Truth in many Cases is only to be

discover’d: And indeed I know how hard it is otherways to enquire

exactly into the common _Truth of Things_, so as to give a _Satisfactory

Demonstration_, or a _general Satisfaction_ to _All_: Which

notwithstanding, I verily believe that the _Sons_ of ART, who know the

_Principles_ and _Power_ of NATURE, and understand her various

_Operations_ upon all BODIES, by the means of her inferiour _Agents_,

the four _ELEMENTS_; and such as have attain’d any competent _Knowledge_

in the _SPAGYRICK ANATOMY_ of Things, especially of _Fluids_, _Water_,

_Wine_, &c. will be at no great Loss to conceive the _Probability_ of

both the _one_ and the _other_ above-mentioned HYPOTHESIS.

ACCEPT then, in fine, _Benevolent_ READER, _This_ short and plain

_Performance_ of PHYSICK and MIDWIFERY; which, if it should not happily

answer to your _Expectation_, I would fain have you believe, that it

will far less correspond with my WISH. If then any Thing be found

_useful_ or _acceptable_ in it, you are to ascribe that to GOD, the

_Author_ of all _Wisdom_; you may impute what is otherways perform’d, to

_Man_’s Understanding and Practice blessed by GOD: Therefore being every

where mindful of _Humanity_, _read_, _revolve_, _enjoy_, and _correct_;

_reflecting_ in the _Interim_, not so much upon the _little that_ I have

done, as upon _that_ which others have not hitherto perform’d concerning

the same _Subject_.

I could with _Pleasure_ have continued _The Performance_, and, according

to my _Design_ at the _Beginning_, have added two _SECTIONS_ more,

_viz._ _One_ upon the _Symptoms_ and _Diseases_ of the WOMB and the

_Passages_; the _other_ upon the various _Symptoms_ or _Accidents_,

relating to the _MENSTRUOUS_ and other _Uterine Fluxes_: But as the WORK

has already by far exceeded the _Limits_, which I design’d it at first,

I shall here for the present Time fix my PEN.

I Pray GOD, in short, the _Fountain of Life, and Source of all Science_,

that HE may enable _others_ to conceive what has been said, _better_

than I have been capable to explain; and grant that the _Fruit_ of my

LABOUR may conduce to the _Health_ and _Preservation_ of all good WOMEN

and their CHILDREN: All finally, upon the whole Work, redounding to the

eternal GLORY of his own most _Holy Name_.

_FINIS._
