Note 0 Concorporation of births, is almost miraculous, tha• two should be ioyned into one. Yet su•• there have beene, as appeareth by Landulphu•, in that answer which hee gave to the question. An et quomodo monstra sint baptisanda whether at all, and if so, then how monstrous and mishapen births are to be baptized A question, that if thes• incorporated Twins had beene borne alive and lived to Baptisme might have put the Minister to his bookes how to proceed in the case. The answer to the question is this: Si perpend•ntur du•s habere animas, n•t pote duo capita, quatuor brachia, quatuor pedes, du•s spina• in dorse, & hujusuiodi ▪ tunc baptis•tur quilibet per se, & intingatur in loco quilibet per se, id est, If you perceive that they have two soules, as thu•: That they have two heads, foure armes, foure feete, two b•cks and backe-bones, and the like: Then l•t each of them be baptized by himselfe, &c. Of two concorporated and joyned backe to backe, wee reade. The story is remembred in Rod•ricu• à Castro, a Physician of speciall note throughout all Europe ▪ as the Title of his Booke doth stile him. He, in Lib. •. de Morbis mulierum, cap. 6. comming to speake of monstrous births, m•ko•h five severall kindes of them (as also before him had Andreas La•rentius in his Historia Anatomica, lib. 8. Qu. 14) more particularly hee maket• the third kinde to be of them that are defective or redundant. Quo numero, saith hee, comprehenduntur duo illi qui tergo uno pro duob•• perfungentes, moribus tamen diversi, viginti annos vi•erunt, & cum vnus mortem obiret, alter tamd•• superv•xit, quoad socij ac germam putr•lagin• fui• extinct••. Two, saith hee, that were joyned backe to backe, and it seeweth as contrary in their maners, as in their lookes. They lived twenty yeeres, and when one of them died, till the putrefaction of that body which could not be separated, did prove the destruction of the survivour. But no mention doe any of the forenamed Authors make of such a birth as this of ours: so that it is likely that they had heard of none such. But proceed. Concorporation of births, is almost miraculous, tha• two should be joined into one. Yet su•• there have been, as appears by Landulphu•, in that answer which he gave to the question. an et quomodo Monstra sint baptisanda whither At all, and if so, then how monstrous and Misshapen births Are to be baptised A question, that if thes• incorporated Twins had been born alive and lived to Baptism might have put the Minister to his books how to proceed in the case. The answer to the question is this: Si perpend•ntur du•s habere animas, n•t pote duo capita, quatuor branchia, quatuor pedes, du•s spina• in dorse, & hujusuiodi ▪ tunc baptis•tur Quilibet per se, & intingatur in loco Quilibet per se, id est, If you perceive that they have two Souls, as thu•: That they have two Heads, foure arms, foure feet, two b•cks and backbones, and the like: Then l•t each of them be baptised by himself, etc. Of two concorporated and joined back to back, we read. The story is remembered in Rod•ricu• à Castro, a physician of special note throughout all Europe ▪ as the Title of his Book does style him. He, in Lib. •. de Morbis mulierum, cap. 6. coming to speak of monstrous births, m•ko•h five several Kinds of them (as also before him had Andrew La•rentius in his History Anatomica, lib. 8. Qu. 14) more particularly he maket• the third kind to be of them that Are defective or redundant. Quo numero, Says he, comprehenduntur duo illi qui tergo Uno Pro duob•• perfungentes, moribus tamen diversi, Viginti annos vi•erunt, & cum vnus mortem obiret, alter tamd•• superv•xit, quoad socij ac germam putr•lagin• fui• extinct••. Two, Says he, that were joined back to back, and it seeweth as contrary in their manners, as in their looks. They lived twenty Years, and when one of them died, till the putrefaction of that body which could not be separated, did prove the destruction of the survivor. But no mention do any of the forenamed Authors make of such a birth as this of ours: so that it is likely that they had herd of none such.
