Midwife

Ø  Meddlesome midwifery is bad. - Proverb

Ø  Until the end of the last century, and indeed, until the early years of the present one, the vast bulk of midwifery was done in the home and nearly all babies were born under the care of an untrained or self-trained woman or midwife. - Sir Stanley Clayton

Ø  When the birth cometh not naturally, then must the midwife do all her diligence and pain to turn the birth tenderly and with her annointed hands, so that it may be reduced again to a natural birth. - Eucharius Roslin
