Stran 203 - Tis the sunset of life gives me mystical lore, And coming events cast their shadows belore.
Stran 382 - And all things weigh'd in custom's falsest scale ; Opinion an omnipotence, — whose veil Mantles the earth with darkness, until right And wrong are accidents, and men grow pale Lest their own judgments should become too bright, And their free thoughts be crimes, and earth have too much light.

This gentleman gives in dysentery, or inflammation of the mucous membrane about the colon, seven grains of nux vomica thrice daily.
Stran 412 - If the tongue become more dry and baked, it generally does more harm ; if it become moist, it does good. " 2. If the pulse become quicker, it does harm ; if it be rendered slower, it does good. " 3. If the skin become hot and parched, it does harm ; if it become more comfortably moist, it does good. " 4.
