Quotes by Linda Simon (?)

“Physicians were never consulted for pregnancy, and Margaret knew that when she was confined for delivery, only women would be allowed to attend to her. As late as 1522, a German physician with insatiable curiosity dressed as a woman to observe a birth. His trespass was punished: he was burned to death.”
― Linda Simon, Of Virtue Rare: Margaret Beaufort, Matriarch of the House of Tudor
