Emblem. 88. Matres improvidæ.
The same in English.
The Ostrich doth leaue her eggesWhich she had laide, with her legges
running afore:
The sand then her more kind
nurseth the young,
Which life thereby doe find
by heate vp sprung:
Hereby mothers vnwise
are well reprooued,
Not to nurse child is their guise
as it behoued;
Or which is worse, vntaught
the child is still:
In pampering the flesh great faule,
the wit while they spill.
