Meaning

  1. New Latintransitiveto make oblong
    Nam Frater Helias, non mutavit formam, aut novam instituit, sed tantummodò à sàncto Patre institutam magis oblongavit.1653, F. Antonius Maria Galitius, Dilvcidatio speculi apologetici, page 359:
    In lecto enim quaelibet partum absolvere potest, in sella obstetricia autem solumodo tunc licet, si caput nimis grande, aut parturiens sellam jam consueta esset, quia caput grande ob propriam gravitatem facilius oblongatur, & citius, dum parturiens majori vi dolores elaborare valet, per exitum pelvis transit.1804, Friedrich Colland, Fundamenta artis obstetriciae, page 48:
