thick [grosse, swelled, or impregnated]: and there then the Tin∣cture getteth a loathing against the fulnesse: for the Tincture it selfe is cleere, and the Fiat with the Elements is thick [grosse and] swel∣led; from whence Women (when they grow bigge [with childe]) know well enough, that many of them loath some meats and drinks, and long still after some strange thing [to eate] for the Tincture cometh to have a loathing of all that the spirit of this world with his Elements filleth in, and willeth to have somewhat else; for this virgin doth not relish them, but becomes [discontented and] sorry, and forsaketh them, and goeth into her Ether, and cometh not againe.
48. And then the Spirit of the Sunne, Starres, and Elements of this world supposeth with it selfe [saying] now thou art in the right, the childe is thine, the foundation is laid, thou wilt bring it up, the virgin must be thine, thou wilt live therein, and have thy joy, [de∣light, and habitation] in her, her ornament must be thine; and thus [he] attracteth alwayes to himselfe in his great lust, by the Fiat which in Eternity goeth not away; and [he] supposeth that he hath, the virgin.

51. Thus the matter (by the Fiat) is severed into Members: and now when the Fiat thus attracteth the bloud of the Mother into the matter, then it is stifled [or choaked; and then the Tincture of the bloud becometh false, and full of anguish: for the [soure] harsh Es∣sence (viz. the Fiat) is terrified, and all the joy (which the soure [harsh] Fiat gat in the Tincture of the bloud) withdraweth; and the Fiat beginneth to tremble in the terrour, in the soure [harsh] Es∣sence: and the terrour goeth away like a flash, and would faine de∣part and fly away out of the Essence, and yet is withheld by the Fiat, which [terrour] is now turned hard and made tough by the Essence:
