Правило 33 Василия Великого

A woman who gives birth on the way and neglects what is born is subject to the guilt of murder. Here there is no need to mean a woman who gave birth to a child on the road and left the child to die, for there is no doubt that such a woman is a murderer and, therefore, no rule is needed for such a case. But here Basil the Great punishes the murderer and the woman who gives birth to a child on the road and leaves the child to her own fate, and then someone else takes this child and saves his life 77 . This is the essence of this rule; Saint Basil gives a more detailed explanation of this in his 52nd rule. Interpretation of Balsamon in Af. Synth., IV, 176. You might be interested in:
