 months longer, because it is indispensably requisite that 

 the wound should be left to close before the muscles whicli 

 cucompass the place are permitted to enjoy their natural

 mischief than had occurred heretofore, if the opening he 

 abandoned too early to itself whilst raoisteacd with llus 

 antiherniacal liquor/' S.
