And for the patient 26 3 | is bad, for it indicates aberration of intellect. It is a deadly 27 15| combination of symptoms accompany the expectoration, the man 28 22| supervene upon them, and on that account the ears previously come 29 2 | disease, and if this cannot be accounted for from the other symptoms, 30 3 | wish to sit erect at the acme of a disease is a bad symptom 31 9 | more dangerous; and if, in addition to the weight, his nails 32 12| watery, black, and thick; in adult men and women the black 33 24| year; older children and adults are not equally liable to 34 15| if the empyema begin to advance after this sputum on the 35 25| come to a crisis in the aforementioned times, by the same symptoms.~ 36 24| beyond twenty days; but to aged persons these less seldom 37 9 | round easily, and to be agile when raised up; but if he 38 24| be they cannot sleep, are agitated, and moan, and change color, 39 20| constitution of quartans is agreeable to the same order. Those 40 14| boil (as it were) in the air-passages. It is bad when coryza and 41 12| distrusted. But you must not allow yourself to be deceived 42 | alone 43 10| If this rule be anywise altered it is so far worse: but 44 19| relieves the patient. But if no amendment takes place in the characters 45 11| his falling into deliquium animi. But in proportion to the 46 23| the physician ought to announce that his patient is in danger. 47 3 | which dangers are to be announced beforehand as likely to 48 5 | performed at a great interval announces delirium; but a cold respiration 49 1 | everything; and by seeing and announcing beforehand those who will 50 | another 51 10| the night. If this rule be anywise altered it is so far worse: 52 17| does not leave, or when appearing to leave them it returns 53 17| when they recover their appetite speedily, and are freed 54 23| of the erythema is to be apprehended. It is much less hazardous 55 24| and if in this form it approach autumn. As deposits form 56 1 | better able to treat those aright who can be saved, having 57 8 | 8. All dropsies arising from acute diseases are 58 1 | physician could bring his art to counteract the disease; 59 20| from the most acute disease ascend by fours up to twenty. But 60 25| there is no difficulty in attaining a knowledge of many more 61 17| the body. These symptoms attend chronic empyemata, and may 62 24| in this form it approach autumn. As deposits form most readily 63 15| fourteenth day. It is by balancing the concomitant symptoms 64 6 | body, show that the man is bearing the disease better. But 65 | because 66 3 | down to the foot of the bed, it is a still more dangerous 67 20| long interval; for these beginnings are very similar, but one 68 1 | will be the more readily believed to be acquainted with the 69 4 | empty space, as if gathering bits of straw, picking the nap 70 9 | man may recover; but the blackened parts of the body will drop 71 2 | relaxed, pendent, cold, and blanched.~ 72 17| desire of food, and small blisters (phlyctaenae) occur over 73 18| patient recovers; but if of a bloody and dirty character, he 74 14| gorged with matters which boil (as it were) in the air-passages. 75 11| inflammation, are relieved by borborygmi supervening in the hypochondrium, 76 23| especially if the neck and breast be affected with erythema, 77 20| who are going to recover breathe freely, and do not suffer 78 1 | before the physician could bring his art to counteract the 79 7 | point; such as are large and broad, and which do not swell 80 15| Most other suppurations burst, some on the twentieth, 81 17| same day that the abscess bursts,—when they recover their 82 20| none of these can be truly calculated by whole days, for neither 83 16| suppuration will take place, by calculating from the day on which the 84 6 | critical days, and completely carry off the fever. Those are 85 18| of empyema treated by the cautery or incision, when the matter 86 7 | in any other part of the cavity will terminate in like manner. 87 18| present for a certain time, ceases without any obvious cause. 88 15| and dense, the pain not ceasing, the sputum scarcely coughed 89 1 | die, he will thus escape censure.~ 90 4 | the coverlet, or tearing chaff from the wall—all such symptoms 91 2 | color of the whole face be changed—all these are to be reckoned 92 18| place while the sputa are changing from yellow and becoming 93 17| eyes become hollow, the cheeks have red spots on them, 94 3 | custom of the patient from childhood, indicates madness and death, 95 12| if it be sometimes passed clear, and sometimes with a white 96 2 | for certain that death is close at hand. It is a mortal 97 2 | to the eyelids not being closed together, and when this 98 2 | sharp nose, hollow eyes, collapsed temples; the ears cold, 99 18| inferior parts when there is a collection of phlegm about the hypochondria; 100 7 | is to be anticipated. The collections of matter there are to be 101 23| extremity of the variety called Columella is larger and round, but 102 15| described above; if such a combination of symptoms accompany the 103 22| other favorable symptom be combined.~ 104 24| properly with them, the disease comes to a crisis on the fourteenth 105 22| relapses of the disease coming on generally prove fatal. 106 8 | fatal. The most of them commence from the flanks and loins, 107 24| these cases, when the pain commences on the first day, they are 108 12| to be reckoned good and commended; but such as are carried 109 24| of age, so quartans most commonly occur to persons beyond 110 7 | those which have no external communication, but are covered and indolent; 111 25| estimating their powers in comparison with one another, as has 112 25| them. But you should not complain because the name of any 113 6 | on the critical days, and completely carry off the fever. Those 114 15| eleventh. Thus then one may conclude regarding this expectoration, 115 12| hold out until the urine be concocted. But the most deadly of 116 15| It is by balancing the concomitant symptoms whether good or 117 15| when all these symptoms concur, the patient certainly will 118 2 | if any of these causes be confessed to, the danger is to be 119 1 | sick; so that men will have confidence to intrust themselves to 120 20| Matters being thus, one may conjecture, according to the time, 121 13| is of most service which consists of phlegm and bile mixed 122 3 | when the patient sleeps constantly with his mouth open, having 123 7 | and not at all fetid; the contrary to this is the worst.~ 124 5 | is to be looked upon as contributing much to the safety of the 125 12| have otherwise symptoms of convalescence, an abscess may be expected 126 11| once at night and more copiously in the morning, as is customary 127 14| air-passages. It is bad when coryza and sneezing either precede 128 15| ceasing, the sputum scarcely coughed up, strong thirst, to have 129 17| up without pain or strong coughing. Those die whom the fever 130 25| sputa, as when the patient coughs up pus and pus and bile 131 | could 132 1 | physician could bring his art to counteract the disease; it therefore 133 7 | external communication, but are covered and indolent; and when the 134 4 | picking the nap from the coverlet, or tearing chaff from the 135 12| those who pass thin and crude urine for a length of time, 136 1 | thing for the physician to cultivate Prognosis; for by foreseeing 137 1 | And he will manage the cure best who has foreseen what 138 3 | when such has not been the custom of the patient from childhood, 139 23| It is very dangerous to cut off or scarify enlarged 140 3 | madness and death, both which dangers are to be announced beforehand 141 12| not allow yourself to be deceived if such urine be passed 142 12| of short duration; but if deficient, and if it be sometimes 143 14| brought up, and a certain degree of yellowness should appear 144 11| danger of his falling into deliquium animi. But in proportion 145 25| have held true in Libya, in Delos, and in Scythia, from which 146 15| difficulty, respiration large and dense, the pain not ceasing, the 147 9 | the disease will turn to a deposition, so that the man may recover; 148 18| peripneumonic affections, or depositions of matter take place in 149 11| frequently getting up, must be deprived of sleep; and if the evacuations 150 8 | the liver; in those which derive their origin from the flanks 151 11| and it also does good by descending to the lower part of the 152 20| it is very difficult to determine those which will come to 153 2 | this is not connected with diarrhea or purgation from medicine, 154 8 | the feet swell, protracted diarrhoeas supervene, which neither 155 18| and dirty character, he dies.~ 156 20| to be judged of; for the differences of them are greatest from 157 8 | and these increase and diminish by turns.~ 158 24| before their eyes, have dimness of vision, or flashes of 159 2 | same inquiries as formerly directed are to be made, and the 160 18| but if of a bloody and dirty character, he dies.~ 161 7 | whole place is free from discoloration. That pus is best which 162 12| passed while the bladder is diseased; for then it is a symptom 163 3 | and legs tossed about in a disorderly manner and naked, it is 164 7 | right and left sides are of disproportionate sizes;—all these appearances 165 12| held as bad, and are to be distrusted. But you must not allow 166 1 | moreover, if there be anything divine in the diseases, and to 167 | down 168 24| at hand; and if he eat or drink anything at such a season, 169 9 | blackened parts of the body will drop off. When the testicles 170 6 | bad; sweats in the form of drops and of vapour are good. 171 18| run the greatest risk of dying; but in the other kinds 172 | each 173 20| shortest space of time, are the easiest to be judged of; for the 174 24| nearer at hand; and if he eat or drink anything at such 175 6 | that do not produce this effect are not beneficial. The 176 21| the suppuration in more elderly persons.~ 177 4 | the face, hunting through empty space, as if gathering bits 178 20| class of them as to violence ends thus: the second is protracted 179 23| dangerous to cut off or scarify enlarged uvulae while they and red 180 25| consider promptly the influx of epidemical diseases and the constitution 181 7 | from pain, soft, and of equal size on the right side and 182 3 | the patient to wish to sit erect at the acme of a disease 183 6 | attended with a miliary eruption, and taking place about 184 1 | who will die, he will thus escape censure.~ 185 1 | Thus a man will be the more esteemed to be a good physician, 186 16| 16. One should estimate when the commencement of 187 25| with all the symptoms, and estimating their powers in comparison 188 | everything 189 17| them it returns with an exacerbation; when they have thirst, 190 7 | and the physician should examine the eyes of such persons; 191 1 | IT APPEARS to me a most excellent thing for the physician 192 11| 11. The excrement is best which is soft and 193 24| protracted, although the man exhibits symptoms of recovery, and 194 2 | none of these be said to exist, if the symptoms do not 195 17| cough, and the patients expectorate nothing worth mentioning, 196 1 | past, and the future, and explaining the omissions which patients 197 3 | hands, neck, and the legs extended, is far less favorable. 198 7 | are those which have no external communication, but are covered 199 19| hard and painful, it is an extremely bad and mortal symptom, 200 23| called Uva, or when the extremity of the variety called Columella 201 2 | deadly symptom; but if the eyelid be contracted, livid, or 202 12| which they have and such as fall downwards, with the colors 203 11| there is danger of his falling into deliquium animi. But 204 23| spit up, and if the patient fancy himself well, and be free 205 12| but still not fatal. But farinaceous sediments in the urine are 206 23| make no appearance in the fauces, nor in the neck, but occasion 207 18| the man will recover most favorably and the abscess becoming 208 15| unequally affected by the febrile heat, the belly and sides 209 16| should inquire if he has the feeling of a weight hanging from 210 16| on which the weight was felt.~ 211 19| from their seventh to their fifteenth year.~ 212 18| inferior extremities and end in fistula, such persons recover. The 213 24| have dimness of vision, or flashes of light appear before their 214 11| noise, but it is better that flatulence should pass even thus than 215 12| diaphragm. And fatty substances floating on the surface are to be 216 11| But if the discharges be fluid, it is favorable that they 217 14| sneezing either precede or follow affections of the lungs, 218 10| either night or day; for it follows from this symptom that the 219 3 | forward, and sink down to the foot of the bed, it is a still 220 1 | diseases, and to learn a foreknowledge of this also. Thus a man 221 1 | cultivate Prognosis; for by foreseeing and foretelling, in the 222 1 | manage the cure best who has foreseen what is to happen from the 223 1 | better than to be able to foretell what is going to happen; 224 1 | Prognosis; for by foreseeing and foretelling, in the presence of the 225 24| immediately suspect the formation of such a deposit, if the 226 15| the thirtieth, some on the fortieth, and some as late as the 227 3 | And if the patient incline forward, and sink down to the foot 228 20| acute disease ascend by fours up to twenty. But none of 229 17| appetite speedily, and are freed from the thirst,—when the 230 12| crisis, for it indicates freedom from danger, and an illness 231 24| as those which occur in frenzy. One must judge of children 232 24| in their hypochondrium a fullness stretching either to the 233 12| thin are very bad, but the furfuraceous are still worse than these. 234 | further 235 1 | present, the past, and the future, and explaining the omissions 236 4 | through empty space, as if gathering bits of straw, picking the 237 12| of the state, not of the general system, but of a particular 238 22| of the disease coming on generally prove fatal. Younger persons 239 23| better to open the bowels gently before proceeding to the 240 11| oppressed by frequently getting up, must be deprived of 241 18| the case otherwise should give trouble. But if the abscesses 242 24| protracted, but are less given to return. Whoever, in a 243 11| or in delirium, unless he gives vent to the wind spontaneously. 244 14| discharge nothing, but are gorged with matters which boil ( 245 11| and viscid, and white, and greenish, and smooth; but still more 246 3 | particularly so in pneumonia. To grind the teeth in fevers, when 247 1 | which patients have been guilty of, he will be the more 248 2 | veins in it; if there be a gum upon the eyes, if they are 249 2 | does not sleep thus from habit, it is to be reckoned an 250 3 | upon one’s belly, when not habitual to the patient to sleep 251 16| the feeling of a weight hanging from above, for if so, the 252 10| but there will be little harm provided he sleep in the 253 21| 21. Strong and continued headaches with fever, if any of the 254 15| affected by the febrile heat, the belly and sides intensely 255 9 | raised up; but if he appear heavy in the rest of his body 256 23| large, for inflammations and hemorrhages supervene; but one should 257 | here 258 12| lest the patient should not hold out until the urine be concocted. 259 7 | is best which is white, homogeneous, smooth, and not at all 260 19| one supervene, the case is hopeless; but if while the disease 261 16| and if the one side be hotter than the other, and when 262 11| consistent, is passed at the hour which was customary to the 263 4 | are waved before the face, hunting through empty space, as 264 25| other symptoms, and not be ignorant how that, in every year, 265 25| bad symptoms prognosticate ill, and favorable symptoms 266 9 | and fingers become livid, immediate death may be anticipated; 267 1 | state of matters. For it is impossible to make all the sick well; 268 24| one of the joints, and not improbably in those below. Such deposits 269 18| treated by the cautery or incision, when the matter is pure, 270 3 | favorable. And if the patient incline forward, and sink down to 271 8 | on the other, and these increase and diminish by turns.~ 272 17| slight during the day, and increases at night, and copious sweats 273 17| are of short standing are indicated by the same, provided they 274 12| be dreaded, for they are indications of melting. And one should 275 7 | if they have headache or indistinct vision; for if there be 276 7 | communication, but are covered and indolent; and when the whole place 277 23| difficulty of breathing; these induce suffocation on the first 278 7 | side and the left. But if inflamed, or painful, or distended; 279 23| they and red and large, for inflammations and hemorrhages supervene; 280 5 | frequent, indicates pain or inflanunation in the parts above the diaphragm: 281 25| to consider promptly the influx of epidemical diseases and 282 11| But in proportion to the ingesta he should have evacuations 283 11| quantity proportionate to the ingests; for when the passages are 284 2 | countenance be such, the same inquiries as formerly directed are 285 3 | indicates aberration of intellect. It is a deadly symptom, 286 14| frothy is bad; but if so intense as to appear black, it is 287 6 | the body, and some with intensity of the inflammation.~ 288 24| a quartan, if it become intermittent, and its paroxysms come 289 7 | worst. Of such as break internally, the best are those which 290 1 | will have confidence to intrust themselves to such a physician. 291 2 | shun the light, or weep involuntarily, or squint, or if the one 292 23| erysipelas be not determined inwardly. If neither the erysipelas 293 24| paroxysms come on in an irregular manner, and if in this form 294 | itself 295 21| of the deadly symptoms be joined to them, are very fatal. 296 24| expected in some one of the joints, and not improbably in those 297 19| the bladder alone are to kill the patient; and at such 298 25| difficulty in attaining a knowledge of many more things than 299 25| having learned them, one knows also how to judge and reason 300 16| than the other, and when laid upon the sound side, one 301 23| variety called Columella is larger and round, but the upper 302 15| the fortieth, and some as late as the sixtieth day.~ 303 2 | green, black, livid, or lead-colored. If the countenance be such 304 12| and still worse are the leafy; the white and thin are 305 1 | in the diseases, and to learn a foreknowledge of this 306 25| things than these; if having learned them, one knows also how 307 17| most readily whom the fever leaves the same day that the abscess 308 12| thin and crude urine for a length of time, if they have otherwise 309 24| and adults are not equally liable to be seized with convulsions 310 25| appear to have held true in Libya, in Delos, and in Scythia, 311 3 | plaited together, while he lies upon his back; and to lie 312 | likely 313 25| of the season. One should likewise be well acquainted with 314 18| there is danger lest the limb should be maimed, or that 315 2 | livid, or pale, or also the lip, or nose, along with some 316 2 | symptom, also, when the lips are relaxed, pendent, cold, 317 1 | beforehand those who will live and those who will die, 318 1 | after calling him, having lived, perhaps, only one day or 319 2 | cold, contracted, and their lobes turned out: the skin about 320 2 | his bowels have been very loose; and whether he has suffered 321 3 | bent, and the whole body lying in a relaxed state, for 322 7 | persons may be expected to go mad. A swelling in the hypochondrium, 323 3 | from childhood, indicates madness and death, both which dangers 324 18| lest the limb should be maimed, or that the case otherwise 325 20| or earlier; and the most malignant, and those setting in with 326 1 | a physician. And he will manage the cure best who has foreseen 327 | maybe 328 | me 329 23| swellings by some other means at this season. When the 330 12| they are indications of melting. And one should consider 331 9 | When the testicles and members are retracted upwards, they 332 17| expectorate nothing worth mentioning, the eyes become hollow, 333 17| but if the pain be more mild, and all the other symptoms 334 6 | prognosticate death, or in a milder one, a prolongation of the 335 20| recover and die. For the mildest class of fevers, and those 336 6 | Sweats attended with a miliary eruption, and taking place 337 | miss 338 24| sleep, are agitated, and moan, and change color, and become 339 11| disease, should be soft and moderately distended; but excrements 340 20| neither the year nor the months can be numbered by entire 341 | moreover 342 7 | their pupils be in rapid motion, such persons may be expected 343 19| time the bowels are not moved, or the discharges are hard 344 4 | 4. Respecting the movement of the hands I have these 345 25| not complain because the name of any disease may happen 346 | namely 347 4 | bits of straw, picking the nap from the coverlet, or tearing 348 1 | becomes necessary to know the nature of such affections, how 349 7 | of all, those below the navel are converted into suppuration; 350 24| cold, vomiting is still nearer at hand; and if he eat or 351 1 | disease; it therefore becomes necessary to know the nature of such 352 18| the expectoration be not normal, and if the alvine discharges 353 2 | other symptoms are to be noted, those in the whole countenance, 354 20| crisis on the same days as to number on which men recover and 355 20| year nor the months can be numbered by entire days. After these 356 3 | the disease, it is to be observed; for if the man be about 357 14| or ruddy color, or if it occasions much cough, or be not strongly 358 7 | is very bad, provided it occupy the whole hypochondrium; 359 3 | previously, or if one has occurred in the course of the disease, 360 24| any symptoms of resolution occurring, and not on the critical 361 7 | discharge of blood from the nose occurs to such in the first period, 362 22| day, or still earlier, but old persons much later; for 363 24| up to their seventh year; older children and adults are 364 1 | future, and explaining the omissions which patients have been 365 | once 366 23| time it will be safe to operate. But it will be better to 367 23| before proceeding to the operation, if time will permit, and 368 20| is agreeable to the same order. Those which will come to 369 8 | those which derive their origin from the flanks and loins 370 20| class of fevers, and those originating with the most favorable 371 7 | such as are determined outwards are the best when they are 372 2 | portion of the white appears, owing to the eyelids not being 373 2 | be contracted, livid, or pale, or also the lip, or nose, 374 2 | being rough, distended, and parched; the color of the whole 375 24| become intermittent, and its paroxysms come on in an irregular 376 20| crisis. And in women, after parturition, the crises proceed agreeably 377 11| the ingests; for when the passages are such, the lower belly 378 11| singly. It is best when wind passes without noise, but it is 379 11| not, it will do good by passing along, and it also does 380 1 | the sick, the present, the past, and the future, and explaining 381 2 | when the lips are relaxed, pendent, cold, and blanched.~ 382 8 | cough, with scarcely any perceptible expectoration, and the feet 383 5 | diaphragm: a large respiration performed at a great interval announces 384 | perhaps 385 23| operation, if time will permit, and the patient be not 386 18| upon them: if the fever persist, and the pain do not cease, 387 7 | hypochondrium, it indicates perturbation or delirium; and the physician 388 17| food, and small blisters (phlyctaenae) occur over the body. These 389 4 | acute fevers, pneumonia, phrenitis, or headache, the hands 390 4 | gathering bits of straw, picking the nap from the coverlet, 391 24| and instead of pain at the pit of the stomach, they have 392 17| expectoration is green or livid, or pituitous and frothy; if all these 393 3 | his legs strongly bent and plaited together, while he lies 394 3 | and these are the best of postures which most resemble those 395 1 | and foretelling, in the presence of the sick, the present, 396 7 | of pain, and yield when pressed with the finger, are more 397 18| not take place, and fever prevails, it is a bad symptom; for 398 15| prognosis; for thus it will most probably prove to be a true one. 399 2 | appearance of the countenance proceeded from these causes. But if 400 6 | better. But those that do not produce this effect are not beneficial. 401 20| manner, according to the same progression, the first period is of 402 6 | death, or in a milder one, a prolongation of the disease; and sweats 403 21| such symptoms the pain be prolonged beyond twenty days, a discharge 404 25| One ought also to consider promptly the influx of epidemical 405 24| and other matters proceed properly with them, the disease comes 406 11| when in health, in quantity proportionate to the ingests; for when 407 6 | some are connected with prostration of strength in the body, 408 7 | they are small, when they protrude very much, and swell to 409 2 | eyes, if they are restless, protruding, or are become very hollow; 410 7 | in the first period, and proves very useful; but inquiry 411 7 | dreaded. And if there be also pulsation in the hypochondrium, it 412 7 | such persons; for if their pupils be in rapid motion, such 413 18| incision, when the matter is pure, white, and not fetid, the 414 2 | connected with diarrhea or purgation from medicine, or when the 415 15| evacuations, nor from venesection, purging with medicine, nor a suitable 416 13| smells which are somewhat putrid and fetid, are bad in all 417 24| that it will pass into a quartan, if it become intermittent, 418 23| patient is in danger. Those quinsies are most dangerous, and 419 9 | easily, and to be agile when raised up; but if he appear heavy 420 7 | for if their pupils be in rapid motion, such persons may 421 20| proceed agreeably to the same ratio.~ 422 3 | most of persons in health recline, and these are the best 423 3 | is found by his physician reclining upon either his right or 424 17| 17. Empyema may be recognized in all cases by the following 425 18| and not fetid, the patient recovers; but if of a bloody and 426 24| man exhibits symptoms of recovery, and there is no longer 427 12| danger. But if the urine be reddish, and the sediment consistent 428 23| supervene; but one should try to reduce such swellings by some other 429 15| Thus then one may conclude regarding this expectoration, that 430 15| medicine, nor a suitable regimen, it is to be held that they 431 22| at these periods of life, relapses of the disease coming on 432 19| white and smooth sediment, relieves the patient. But if no amendment 433 11| which are bilious, those resembling leeks, and the black; these 434 24| without any symptoms of resolution occurring, and not on the 435 9 | if he appear heavy in the rest of his body as well as in 436 2 | upon the eyes, if they are restless, protruding, or are become 437 11| thus than that it should be retained; and when it does pass thus, 438 9 | testicles and members are retracted upwards, they indicate strong 439 24| protracted, but are less given to return. Whoever, in a fever that 440 17| appearing to leave them it returns with an exacerbation; when 441 18| in life run the greatest risk of dying; but in the other 442 2 | about the forehead being rough, distended, and parched; 443 10| during the night. If this rule be anywise altered it is 444 23| at this time it will be safe to operate. But it will 445 5 | contributing much to the safety of the patient in all acute 446 2 | But if none of these be said to exist, if the symptoms 447 1 | those aright who can be saved, having long anticipated 448 24| described. These things I say respecting acute diseases, 449 23| dangerous to cut off or scarify enlarged uvulae while they 450 11| as those which resemble scrapings, those which are bilious, 451 25| Libya, in Delos, and in Scythia, from which it may be known 452 21| especially if the pain be seated above the temples and forehead; 453 12| not fatal. But farinaceous sediments in the urine are bad, and 454 24| aged persons these less seldom happen, and not until the 455 7 | in the hypochondrium; and seldomest of all, those below the 456 15| portion be expectorated separate, or along with the other; 457 23| throat with fever, is a serious affection, and if any other 458 13| That vomiting is of most service which consists of phlegm 459 20| most malignant, and those setting in with the most dangerous 460 20| fourteenth, the fifth to the seventeenth, and the sixth to the twentieth. 461 | shall 462 25| and in what cases for a shorter time, must be able to form 463 20| come to a crisis in the shortest space of time, are the easiest 464 6 | place over the whole body, show that the man is bearing 465 2 | in the eyes; for if they shun the light, or weep involuntarily, 466 20| these beginnings are very similar, but one should pay attention 467 11| together, and sometimes singly. It is best when wind passes 468 3 | patient incline forward, and sink down to the foot of the 469 3 | for the patient to wish to sit erect at the acme of a disease 470 20| the seventeenth, and the sixth to the twentieth. Thus these 471 15| and some as late as the sixtieth day.~ 472 7 | pain, soft, and of equal size on the right side and the 473 7 | are of disproportionate sizes;—all these appearances are 474 2 | their lobes turned out: the skin about the forehead being 475 3 | also, when the patient sleeps constantly with his mouth 476 17| does not go off, but is slight during the day, and increases 477 3 | his hands, neck, and legs slightly bent, and the whole body 478 13| provided it be of a fetid smell. But all the smells which 479 13| fetid smell. But all the smells which are somewhat putrid 480 8 | the flanks and loins, nor soften the belly, but in dropsies 481 13| all the smells which are somewhat putrid and fetid, are bad 482 18| becoming free of pain, will soon cease; but if the expectoration 483 3 | man be about to die the sore will become livid and dry, 484 10| insomnolency is connected with sorrow and pains, or that he is 485 16| and when laid upon the sound side, one should inquire 486 24| symptoms, as they have been specially described. These things 487 17| they recover their appetite speedily, and are freed from the 488 14| salutary symptom. A yellow spittle mixed up with not much blood 489 11| he gives vent to the wind spontaneously. Pains in the hypochondria, 490 22| then, this is a hazardous spot, one ought to pay particular 491 17| hollow, the cheeks have red spots on them, the nails of the 492 24| and the affections which spring from them.~ 493 2 | and if the countenance be squalid and dark, or the color of 494 2 | or weep involuntarily, or squint, or if the one be less than 495 2 | disease be in a more advanced stage either on the third or fourth 496 19| patient will die in the first stages of the complaint. This form 497 17| and such as are of short standing are indicated by the same, 498 16| to the periods formerly stated. But if the empyema be only 499 4 | as if gathering bits of straw, picking the nap from the 500 6 | connected with prostration of strength in the body, and some with
