Note
One spelling carries every meaning of the verb into the present: a courier delivers a parcel, a rescuer delivers someone from danger, a midwife delivers a baby. The birth senses need the most care, because the subject changes the meaning. A doctor who delivers twins assists, but a mother who delivers twins gives birth. The formal pattern, delivers a woman of a child, makes the woman the object, not the infant.
