CHAP. IV. What things are to be observed, as necessary unto generation in the time of copulation.
* 1.1WHen the husband commeth into his wives chamber, he must entertain her with all kinde of dalliance, wanton behaviour, and allurements to Venery; but if he perceive her to be slow, and more cold, he must cherish, embrace, and tickle her, and shall not abruptly, the nerves being suddenly distended, break into the field of nature; but rather shall creep in by little and and little, intermixing more wanton kisses with wanton words and speeches, handling her secret parts and dugs, that she may take fire, and

be enflamed to Venery; for so at length the womb will strive and wax servent with a desire of ca∣sting forth it own seed, and receive the mans seed to be mixed together therewith. But if all these things will not suffice to enflame the woman; for women for the most part are more slow and slack unto the expulsion or yeelding forth of their seed, it shall be necessary first to foment her secret parts with the decoction of hot herbs made with Muscadine, or boiled in any other good wine; and to put a little Musk or Civet into the neck or mouth of the womb: and when she shall perceive the efflux of her seed to approach, by reason of the tickling pleasure, she must advertise her husband thereof, that at the very instant time or moment,* 1.2 he may also yeeld forth his seed, that by the concourse or meeting of the seeds, conception may be made; and so at length a child formed and born. And that it may have the better success, the husband must not presently separate himself from his wives embraces, lest the air strike into the open womb, and so corrupt the seeds before they are perfectly mixed together. When the man departs, let the woman lye still in quiet, laying her legs or her thighs across, one upon another; and raising them up a little, lest that by motion or downward situation, the seed should be shed or spilt: which is the cause why she ought at that time not to talk, especially chiding, nor to cough, nor snees, but give her self to rest and quietness, if it be possible.
