A88902	De morbis fœmineis, the womans counsellour: or, The feminine physitian. Modestly treating of such occult accidents, and secret diseases, as are incident to that sex, which their too much modesty, too often to their sorrow, causes them to conceal from others, for a remedy whereof, they are here taught to be their own helpers; especially in these particulars: of barrenness and abortion: of natural, and unnatural births: of the suppression of the termes, the immoderate flux thereof, and other infirmities. Dicereque puduit, scribere jussit. With a brief appendix, touching the kindes, causes, and cures of dropsies, and tympanies of all sorts. / Translated out of Massarius de morbis mulier. By R.T. philomathēs.; Praelectiones de morbis mulierum. English	Massaria, Alessandro, 1510-1598.; Turner, Robert, fl. 1654-1665.	1657 (1657)	Wing M1028; Thomason E1650_3; ESTC R209118	65,102	229

the_o disease_n may_v be_v the_o easy_a effect_v now_o the_o physician_n be_v destitute_a of_o that_o help_n by_o reason_n of_o the_o silence_n of_o the_o woman_n the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o
