order_v will_v be_v speed_v and_o conceive_v unless_o she_o be_v a_o mare_n of_o great_a sterility_n which_o suppose_v she_o be_v not_o to_o be_v keep_v for_o a_o race_n or_o breed_a mare_n moreover_o

any_o peril_n i_o then_o advise_v you_o to_o draw_v as_o much_o milk_n from_o she_o as_o you_o can_v and_o boil_v it_o with_o the_o leaf_n of_o lavender_n or_o spike_n and_o so_o bathe_v her_o ud_a

who_o have_v their_o colt_n suck_v upon_o they_o may_v run_v by_o themselves_o with_o all_o quietness_n and_o retiredness_n and_o every_o of_o these_o partition_n must_v be_v so_o sufficient_o fence_v
