Page 608 - Within himself, from more to more; Or, crown'd with attributes of woe Like glories, move his course, and show That life is not as idle ore, But iron dug from central gloom, And heated hot with burning fears, And dipt in baths of hissing tears, And batter'd with the shocks of doom To shape and use.
Page 51 - THE physician's high and only mission is to restore the sick to health, to cure, as it is termed.1 § 2.
Page 525 - March, may not be uninteresting, as it has more or less relation in its nature to the theory so earnestly advocated by Pouchet. There are certain well-known bodies described as animals by Ehrenberg, under the name of Vibrio ; their peculiarity consists in that they are composed of a single row of globular bodies, resembling a string of beads, more or less curved, and move in a spiral path with great velocity, even faster than the eye can follow in many cases. They exhibit, by their activity, more...
Page 125 - Skin hot and dry, and pulse much increased in force and frequency. The patient's manner was apoplectic, respiration anxious, and attended with the brazen, stridulous sound of croup. A constant but unsuccessful effort at deglutition was observable, and at every renewal of the attempt the muscles of the throat and pharynx would be thrown into violent spasmodic action.

" I never ceased to wonder at Dickens's indomitable cheerfulness, even when he was suffering from ill health, and could not sleep more than two or three hours out of the twenty-four. He made it a point never to inflict...
Page 208 - Briefly, even those symptoms which are of regular occurrence and especially characteristic— as the stupidity of mind, the kind of rigidity in all the limbs, but above all the numb, disagreeable sensation, which seems to have its seat in the 3.
Page 482 - In the great majority of cases in which death has occurred during the stage of collapse, the right side of the heart and the pulmonary arteries are filled, and sometimes distended, with blood ; while the left cavities of the heart are generally empty, or contain only a small quantity of blood ; tie auricle being partially and the ventricle completely and firmly contracted.
Page 523 - ... thought to be the special property of the vegetable world has been found to occur in animals. Thus sugar, starch, woody fibre, vegetable colouring matter as indigo, albuminous substances, are common to animals and vegetables ; and at length we have arrived at the fact that no distinction can truly be drawn between the three kingdoms of nature. In the body, salt and phosphate of lime and phosphate of soda are animal substances as much as fibrin and albumen. Sugar is as much an animal substance...
Page 176 - Taking Cold (the Cause of half our Diseases)-: Its Nature, Causes, Prevention and Cure; its frequency as a Cause of other Disease, and the Diseases of which it is the Cause, with their Diagnosis and Treatment.
Page 524 - From the large number of carbon atoms in quinine, it may be regarded as one of the early substances produced in the downward passage of albumen, and from this we shall very probably find the key to the question how quinine acts in the body. When sulphate of quinine is taken, like the lithium and other substances which I brought before you last year, it rapidly passes from the blood into the textures. Even in a quarter of an hour, after four grains of sulphate of quinine the fluorescence may rise...
