Every new idea has something of the pain and peril of childbirth about it; ideas are just as mortal and just as immortal as organised beings are. If the literary offspring is not to die young, almost as much trouble must be taken with it as with the bringing up of a physical child. Still, the physical child is the harder work of the two.
=Insanity of Pregnancy.= This may show itself after the third month of pregnancy in the form of melancholia. It is not recovered from until after delivery. =Puerperal Mania.= This form of mania attacks women soon after childbirth. There is in many cases a strong homicidal tendency against the child.
But the general public has not fully awakened to the same profound necessity in connection with childbirth, although it was child-bed fever that called forth the observations and experiments upon which modern surgical technique rests.
Bennoch had died in childbirth they had never had children. He was doubtless thinking of that dark and bright period when his mother lay dying in his house in Salem and The Scarlet Letter was waiting to be born.
It brought me back to God, before whom I now felt so humble and so glad, because he had transformed the world for me. Every Catholic will know why I could not ask for the benediction of the Church after childbirth; but he will also know why I was in a fever of anxiety to have my baby baptized at the earliest possible moment.

4 By a constitution, however, which we have placed in the Code made illustrious by our name, we have deemed it right to afford relief to the mother, in consideration of natural justice, of the pains of childbirth, and of the danger and even death which mothers often incur in this manner; for which reason we have judged it a sin that they should be prejudiced by a circumstance which is entirely fortuitous.
The revocation of the gracious gift of immortality. The sterility of the earth, which was no longer to be fertile of itself, save in evil or useless herbs. The rude toil one must exercise in order to gain sustenance. The subjection of the woman to the will of the husband. The pains of childbirth. The enmity between man and the serpent.
During fevers, illness, no matter of what kind, or on whose side, childbirth even, never were they a single night apart, and even when the deceased Queen was eaten up with the scrofula, the King continued to sleep with her until a few nights before her death! About nine o'clock in the morning the curtains were drawn by the Asafeta, followed by a single valet carrying a basin full of caudle.
The Colonel joins Darrell, and hastens to unfold more fully the story which Vance is reciting to Waife. Brief as it can, be the explanation due to the reader. Vance's sister had died in childbirth.
