Chap. 14. Of strange things voided by the Womb.

THere is matter often voided by the Womb, of which before.

And sometimes stones and gravel breed in the womb, as Aetius and Peter Salius Diversus speaks of a Nun, that after a pain that no Medicine could cure, voided a rough stone as big as a Ducks Egg, and then she was at ease: but a foul Flux of the Womb followed, of which she died.

Worms.

Garcias Lopius writes, that he saw a woman, that voided many Ascarides of the Womb.
