Those, then, who act in such cases without deliberation, 58 | actually 59 13| the thongs piece of wood adapted to the nave, extension may 60 25| sides, for a useless load is added to the throbbing which formerly 61 8 | pretty high object, and adjusting the bone with the palms 62 26| wound; for the extension, adjustment of the bones, and the bandaging, 63 37| course of medicine should be administered, along with the same treatment 64 1 | manner, for people rather admire what is new, although they 65 9 | a line with them. It is advantageous to lie in bed during the 66 36| lever in such cases may be advantageously employed.~ 67 16| am at a loss whether to advise that they should be used 68 4 | carried upward, so that the afflux of blood into it may be 69 38| mentioned, and therefore affords no great resistance, although 70 10| all injuries at joints the affusion of hot water in large quantity 71 32| disturb the limb on the aforesaid days, but strive to keep 72 | afterwards 73 | against 74 13| the limb at the knee, and aids in thus making counter-extension. 75 27| is to be exposed to the air, nor is anything to be apprehended 76 18| of the longer bone is not alike, for the elbow and the ham 77 31| plausibility, for they are allied to one another in many respects. 78 | almost 79 8 | while it is bent at a right angle, the best plan is to put 80 7 | anything about the bandages annoys the patient, you should 81 5 | patient, if asked, should answer, that he feels the bandages 82 46| part, at the base of the anterior coronoid process; and when 83 24| if there be no reason to anticipate that any splintered bones 84 2 | natural position, and he appealed to what happens in archery, 85 23| limb must present a curved appearance at the forepart of the leg; 86 15| the same mode of bandaging applies to the arm and to the leg. 87 27| air, nor is anything to be apprehended from these suppurations, 88 11| be particularly good and appropriate. And if the patient happen 89 31| little power. But those who approve of binding up the limb with 90 18| the other half of the body approximates more to this line than to 91 2 | patient to hold it as the archers do when they project the 92 38| nerve (ligament?) at the ham arises from it; but the bones of 93 13| may be fastened about the armpits on each side, and they are 94 16| in making any subsequent arrangements of the bed and in going 95 15| position, by straightening and arranging them with the palms of the 96 6 | 6. When the third day arrives, that is to say, the seventh 97 2 | farthest, and discharge his arrow with the greatest force 98 2 | force and rapidity, for arrows thus discharged have the 99 1 | many other things in our art are judged of in this manner, 100 16| although it is not secundum artem. For the limb should by 101 7 | of exercise; and tender articles of food should be used, 102 42| 41. But if the articular extremity of the humerus 103 40| remains in place which is articulated with the cavity of the bone 104 48| whether the extremity of the articulating bone be snapped off, whether 105 38| configuration then of the articulations, and of the bones of the 106 27| cause. In such cases it is ascertained that there is an ulcer, 107 29| form of the bandage called “ascia.” These things are to be 108 21| the swellings, by laying aside the splints, and applying 109 5 | properly bandaged: if you ask him if the arm feels tight, 110 5 | increased; and the patient, if asked, should answer, that he 111 32| bend. This is a powerful assistance, provided the pieces of 112 38| it (the olecranon?) are attached the nerves (ligaments?) 113 17| fracture this object should be attained then as quickly as possible. 114 37| otherwise it should not be attempted. The wound should be treated 115 36| not been reduced, nor any attempts made at reduction. Still 116 7 | treatment it is necessary to attend also to the following directions, 117 16| become more slender and attenuated, and the bones will be more 118 14| little as possible. The attenuation of the body is to be made 119 29| to be dipped in a black austere wine; and beginning at the 120 8 | put the same questions and avail himself of the same signs 121 30| it is a disgraceful and awkward thing to use mechanical 122 32| powerful are these three, the axis in peritrochio, the lever, 123 48| The treatment especially befitting each particular dislocation 124 | beforehand 125 | begin 126 3 | fancies that both these belong to the same bone, and many 127 30| prevent the foot and the bones belonging to it from following the 128 3 | close to the little finger, belongs to the fore-arm, whereas 129 8 | is over, and the patient bends his arm at the elbow, the 130 16| For they certainly are beneficial, but not to the extent which 131 25| pressure should be, and what benefits would result from applying 132 | beside 133 26| narrower bandage than the wound binds the wound like a girdle, 134 11| that the part may become blackened. And we must so manage the 135 21| danger of vesications or blackening in the swelling, and nothing 136 16| is more likely to escape blame, when the canal is placed 137 11| there may be lividities of bloody veins, with nausea, and 138 1 | matters, are they who commit blunders. There is no necessity for 139 7 | as moderately loosen the bowels; but one should abstain 140 2 | casting stones, another in boxing, and another in a state 141 11| troublesome, and frequently break out again, unless particular 142 8 | to be carried round the breast, and when the patient goes 143 3 | bone may be turned to the brightest light which is at hand, 144 11| about the ankle, sometimes bringing a fold round the foot and 145 3 | fore-arm. These things he brings forward as proofs that the 146 49| put on in a somewhat more bulky form at the seat of the 147 27| emollient applications, like burns. The bandages are to be 148 31| diseases, unless one should call all other diseases wounds. 149 36| great difference as to the capability of enduring such an injury. 150 7 | improperly executed, they are capable of marring the whole process 151 20| splints, in fact, should be carefully kept off the naked parts 152 11| this; as when, from being carelessly allowed to lie in a certain 153 34| certain of the bones become carious, and some not, some more, 154 11| around the heel, sometimes carrying it to the extremity of the 155 46| is broken; sometimes its cartilaginous part, which gives origin 156 2 | in slinging, another in casting stones, another in boxing, 157 25| they are obliged to apply a cataplasm on account of the swelling, 158 18| outer bone be broken, it causes much less trouble, and the 159 38| arm is large, and has many cavities. And in addition, the bones 160 16| be used or not. For they certainly are beneficial, but not 161 8 | suspend it by means of a chain fastened to its extremities 162 36| singultus and mortification. The chances of recovery are not fewer 163 28| bones, do not require any change of treatment, only the bandages 164 15| the fleshy parts will be changed in bending the arm at the 165 22| along with the canal, as children are swathed in bed; and 166 13| direction to the feet. Or if you choose, it may be done thus: instead 167 3 | could lead him wherever he chose, and neither, if a man held 168 26| will come more quickly to cicatrization when thus treated than otherwise. 169 27| and will more speedily cicatrize. Such are the good effects 170 10| luxation, and the first circles of the bandages are to be 171 25| but some other untoward circumstance. Wherefore I would not have 172 13| who practices in a large city, to have prepared a proper 173 46| immediate in the latter class of cases than in the former, 174 25| treatment is bad, and it is clear that those who adopt this 175 3 | protrudes at the wrist, close to the little finger, belongs 176 30| balls the balls should have coats on each side, deeper toward 177 49| that the swelling may not collect there. In applying bandages, 178 25| and would assume a bad color; how then could it be that 179 39| to the inflammation which comes on, and the configuration 180 28| while they are on the eve of coming out of the sore, you must 181 5 | compression should always commence at the seat of the fracture, 182 24| broken across, and are not comminuted, but protrude, if reduced 183 1 | these matters, are they who commit blunders. There is no necessity 184 30| thigh. And the rods are commodiously arranged on either side 185 38| proportion to its size, is more compact than that of the arm, and 186 36| due time. But if you are compelled to have recourse to reduction, 187 9 | patients, thinking light of the complaint, have not perseverance to 188 10| they are subjected to the complaints formerly described, or still 189 9 | 9. The human foot is composed of several small bones like 190 11| allow wine but oxyglyky (a composition from vinegar and honey?). 191 28| and surrounding parts be compressed by the bandages they become 192 18| arranged, it is impossible to conceal the distortion, for the 193 2 | mistakes, the physician, conceited in his knowledge, would 194 13| as the parts of the body concerned are stronger in this case. 195 5 | symptoms be wanting, you may conclude that the bandaging is slacker 196 16| common people have more confidence, and the surgeon is more 197 11| certain position during confinement to bed, the heel becomes 198 38| arm, and has a more even conformation, and is rounded, while the 199 34| others, it is not of much consequence whether they be sawed off 200 25| For it is a most important consideration to know in what manner the 201 26| bandages should be of a soft consistence, and more especially so 202 12| 12. The leg consists of two bones, of which the 203 2 | into a line, as if they constituted a single bone, and all flexion 204 3 | any proper use of it, so constrained is this position. And, moreover, 205 38| inflammation follows, nor any constriction of the joint. They are displaced 206 36| the bones are large, and contain much marrow; and many important 207 11| the veins pour forth their contents, owing to the contusion 208 6 | are not needed in order to contribute to the compression.~ 209 30| mischief but no good; for it contributes nothing to the extension 210 6 | application of the splints contributing at all to the compression 211 30| these things be properly contrived, they should occasion a 212 46| situated in these places are contused; for the risk of death is 213 11| contusion; but in general the contusions are mild, and no great care 214 48| which the patient can most conveniently carry or suspend his arm 215 27| regimen, and suitable bandages cooperate.~ 216 28| mode of treatment; pus runs copiously from the sore, and appears 217 30| taking four rods, made of the cornel tree, of equal length, and 218 46| the base of the anterior coronoid process; and when this displacement 219 25| is of vital importance to correct, while what is here said 220 6 | paid to the line of the arm corresponding to the thumb, so that no 221 15| by making extension and counterextension. Extension must naturally 222 40| and at the same time makes counterpressure on the opposite side near 223 22| without the thigh. And it creates uneasiness by being brought 224 36| and if the bones do not cross one another much, and if 225 29| part around and proceed crossing the heads in the form of 226 4 | must apply the bandages crossways, sometimes to the right 227 8 | having got a piece of wood a cubit or somewhat less in length, 228 9 | which have been luxated are cured incompletely; and, on that 229 16| is more convenient than a cushion, or something similar, either 230 15| since persons are not in the custom of keeping the joint long 231 32| like the levers which the cutters of stone make use of, one 232 29| compresses are to be frequently damped with wine; but if the winter 233 26| which have become black and dead, will sooner separate and 234 28| 28. If you are deceived with regard to a recent 235 11| any disease a protracted decubitus takes place on the back, 236 30| have coats on each side, deeper toward the wound, but shorter 237 13| desire to effect, fasten deeply in the ground a round, smooth 238 1 | act in such cases without deliberation, for the most part do not 239 9 | injuries, therefore, will be delivered under the head of wounds. 240 23| the foot be placed in a dependent position, while the rest 241 15| so, and is usually in a depending position from its construction, 242 31| which it would be tedious to describe.~ 243 25| another case of the same description, they treat it in the same 244 38| small an extent as hardly to deserve being mentioned, and therefore 245 9 | mind of the injury; and deservedly, for the feet sustain the 246 13| extremity otherwise; this if you desire to effect, fasten deeply 247 32| with the lever is not to be despised, for the bones will be reduced 248 3 | bone could not escape being detected by the hand of an experienced 249 4 | the extremity, but may be determined to the upper part; and then 250 30| to do the thing well and dexterously, it is proper to have recourse 251 12| and this epiphysis has a diaphysis; but the other bone in a 252 34| and in others the flesh dies all around; and, from a 253 7 | matter, for one constitution differs from another, and one period 254 5 | that the tightness does not diminish, but rather increases; and 255 27| your finger the redness disappears, but speedily returns. If 256 2 | rapidity, for arrows thus discharged have the greatest swiftness 257 25| must necessarily become discolored and its lips everted, the 258 11| the thigh, or when in any disease a protracted decubitus takes 259 19| line; for it is a great disgrace and an injury to exhibit 260 30| recourse to at all, for it is a disgraceful and awkward thing to use 261 18| inferior extremity, the disposition of the longer bone is not 262 19| bone are separated to a distance from one another by the 263 19| the parts may be properly distended and put in a straight line; 264 30| produce greater or less distention, if required. Either of 265 20| properly treated, then, the distortions are in these directions; 266 32| fifth. For if the limb is disturbed on these days, and yet the 267 22| knee, for this completely disturbs the bandages; and when the 268 45| bend of the arm near the division of the vein that runs up 269 31| diseases wounds. And this doctrine is not devoid of a certain 270 37| you must give an emollient draught of hellebore the same day, 271 2 | the archer be enabled to draw the string farthest, and 272 2 | yield when the string is drawn by the right arm, and thus 273 16| arrangement of the limb, or dread any ulceration, you should 274 5 | doing, the humors will be driven to the extremities, whereas 275 27| will much more speedily drop off, and the swelling in 276 36| should prognosticate them in due time. But if you are compelled 277 7 | of the time, or a little earlier, and apply them again. A 278 14| able to use the limb with ease, and he will find it necessary 279 4 | bones of the forearm, it is easier to effect a cure if the 280 11| going to get worse, the ecchymosed and livid parts, and those 281 11| satisfactory proof in all cases of ecchymosis, that they are not to get 282 30| should sew two balls of Egyptian leather, such as are worn 283 32| But when seven days have elapsed, or rather more, if there 284 38| and the thigh should be elevated, but not much. Moderate 285 34| below in the wound generally elevates the pieces of bone. It will 286 16| seventh, the ninth, or the eleventh day, the splints should 287 22| to me, that a canal which embraces the limb from the nates 288 29| which will suit with the embrocation. And if it be the summer 289 11| be no fever, we must give emetics, as has been said, and administer 290 15| contrivances, for it is absurd to employ mechanical means when not 291 36| cases may be advantageously employed.~ 292 2 | thus will the archer be enabled to draw the string farthest, 293 8 | suspected, the arm is to be encircled in a broad shawl, which 294 32| possible, and especially encourage suppuration in it. But when 295 | ending 296 36| as to the capability of enduring such an injury. And it makes 297 11| give strong medicines, but enjoin abstinence from solid food 298 30| should occasion a proper and equable extension in a straight 299 30| made of the cornel tree, of equal length, and of the thickness 300 26| put on in a loose manner, especial care being taken that there 301 49| injury. The periods are to be estimated from the inflammation, and 302 28| bones, while they are on the eve of coming out of the sore, 303 | ever 304 25| discolored and its lips everted, the discharge will be ichorous 305 11| without wounding it. It is not everybody who can apply the bandage 306 11| hard, there is danger of an exacerbation. But if there be no fever, 307 31| those which give rise to exacerbations, whether the tendency be 308 45| accident becomes obvious upon examination with the hand at the bend 309 30| and the wound is easily examined and easily arranged. And, 310 2 | repose. And whatever arts one examines, it will be found that the 311 45| with the elbow-joint; for example, the thicker bone (radius?) 312 30| already described, this is an excellent contrivance; but if any 313 9 | the fractures, with the exception of the splints; and is to 314 19| be insufficient, for when excessive, no great harm results from 315 32| reduced, inflammation will be excited, and this no less if they 316 29| position are subject to excoriations which are difficult to cure.~ 317 31| improper in this. It is very excusable for those who are called 318 7 | as being now deprived of exercise; and tender articles of 319 34| not separating, but merely exfoliating, become dried up and putrid; 320 34| Those which are about to exfollate should not be sawn off. 321 31| for, the latter method exhibits the patient on the seventh 322 25| throbbing which formerly existed in it. At last they loose 323 20| bandage; and moreover, it is expedient that the extremities of 324 49| that the swelling may be expelled from the seat of the injury 325 5 | afterwards one ought to experience the same train of symptoms 326 3 | detected by the hand of an experienced person, when applied for 327 19| longer than the other, it exposes the mistake, and therefore 328 25| bandages on both sides, and the exposure of the wound are the cause 329 3 | any one may ascertain by extending his own arm in this attitude. 330 11| get worse or not: when the extravasated blood, the lividities, and 331 32| than if the attempt should fail. These facts should be well 332 46| becomes looser if the bone be fairly broken across. To speak 333 1 | necessity, but physicians who fancy themselves learned in these 334 3 | from the skin, and also fancying the bones to be thus in 335 2 | enabled to draw the string farthest, and discharge his arrow 336 29| compresses, not less than half a fathom in breadth (being guided 337 3 | reclined, and will not become fatigued. The man should be so seated 338 35| for there is danger of febrile rigors, and also of convulsions; 339 5 | day the compression should feel less, and on the third day 340 17| But if the other bone (fibula?) of the leg be broken, 341 32| third, the fourth, and the fifth. For if the limb is disturbed 342 15| them up while extended, the figures of the fleshy parts will 343 14| limb with ease, and he will find it necessary to wear a bandage 344 3 | inner side and from the fingers become distorted while the 345 49| bandages should be applied most firmly at that place, and less 346 4 | the bandage should impart firmness to the parts without occasioning 347 4 | so that the blood do not flow toward the extremity, but 348 29| so as to carry off the fluids which run from the wound; 349 11| ankle, sometimes bringing a fold round the foot and sometimes 350 38| for no great inflammation follows, nor any constriction of 351 44| are quickly present, by forcible extension the parts may 352 46| the arm, and sometimes its fore part, at the base of the 353 2 | to as a sage; and yet he forgets that in all the other arts 354 4 | bone is situated below, and forms a support to it, and because 355 11| separated, and the veins pour forth their contents, owing to 356 30| the same line. Then taking four rods, made of the cornel 357 37| confined to this regimen for fourteen days at least, but if he 358 37| have for a diet a little fragrant oxyglyky sprinkled on water; 359 24| some of the dressings for fresh wounds, or anything else 360 11| veins, with nausea, and gangrene from pressure; these diseases 361 33| wound, so that its lips may gape or be distorted as little 362 6 | every third day, in a very gentle manner, always keeping in 363 15| bending the limb nor of getting up erect, but remain lying 364 2 | attitude of the left arm, for gingly-moid extremity of the humerus 365 26| wound binds the wound like a girdle, which is not proper, or 366 26| direction has been formerly given. And the diet should be 367 29| should be applied. And a goat’s skin should be spread 368 8 | breast, and when the patient goes to rest, a compress of many 369 6 | swelling should be quite gone, and the broken bones should 370 27| the extremities, and then gradually proceed upward with the 371 11| surrounding them become greenish and not hard; for this is 372 20| and the loins, so that the groin and the articulation near 373 34| sound, for the flesh which grows up below in the wound generally 374 29| the wound; these must be guarded against, and it should be 375 29| fathom in breadth (being guided in this by the nature of 376 25| this mode of practice are guilty of great mistakes in other 377 16| With regard to the canals (gutters?) usually placed below fractured 378 15| walking and standing, is habitually extended, either completely 379 8 | less in length, like the handles of spades, suspend it by 380 30| the balls be well made, handsome, soft, and newly stitched, 381 25| wound are the cause of what happened, but some other untoward 382 11| it, the skin be thick and hardened, it is to be pared down 383 27| the extremities becomes harder than usual, and if you apply 384 38| to so small an extent as hardly to deserve being mentioned, 385 11| lividity is complicated with hardness, there is danger that the 386 24| come out, some physicians heal the sores in a way which 387 11| the leg and it is long of healing, and is connected with the 388 9 | wounded by some sharp and heavy body. The treatment of stich 389 8 | as to keep it a moderate height while it is bent at a right 390 3 | chose, and neither, if a man held a sword thus in his hand, 391 | hence 392 | here 393 28| of the sore, you must not hesitate to adopt this mode of treatment; 394 11| accompanied with tremblings, hiccup, aberration of intellect, 395 3 | sometimes rest, and when he holds the arm thus in a supine 396 11| composition from vinegar and honey?). But if the case be not 397 37| provided one can do so honourably, for the hopes of recovery 398 37| do so honourably, for the hopes of recovery are small, and 399 9 | 9. The human foot is composed of several 400 25| everted, the discharge will be ichorous and without pus, and the 401 16| limb then may be well or ill arranged with or without 402 4 | and the bandage should impart firmness to the parts without 403 31| not appear to be anything improper in this. It is very excusable 404 18| has more work to sustain; inasmuch as it is the head of the 405 15| since the patients become incapable of raising themselves up, 406 27| fall off, the part will incarnate sooner when thus treated 407 4 | arm, or according to the inclination which it may have. Afterward 408 13| leg while stretched, from inclining downward; some person seated 409 20| near the perineum may be included in the bandage; and moreover, 410 9 | have been luxated are cured incompletely; and, on that account, while 411 34| out, and if it occasions inconvenience and irritates any part of 412 11| cause, in addition to other inconveniences, are attended with great 413 5 | number of bandages should be increased; and the patient, if asked, 414 5 | not diminish, but rather increases; and if on the next day 415 35| convulsions; for convulsions are induced by cold things, and also 416 4 | round with compresses, and inequalities should be made up, not by 417 5 | symptoms be in excess, you may infer that the compression is 418 31| fevers. And if any piece of information be particularly valuable 419 38| has more to do with the insertion of the ligaments in the 420 1 | wish to unteach, and what instructions I have to give as to the 421 2 | which suits best with the instrument that is used, and the work 422 32| levers. Of all the mechanical instruments used by men, the most powerful 423 19| extension that it may not be insufficient, for when excessive, no 424 11| tremblings, hiccup, aberration of intellect, and which prove fatal within 425 28| discharge of pus may not be intercepted, but left free, and the 426 30| the ankles, so as not to interfere with the position of the 427 26| about the wound. And the intervals of time during which the 428 11| such cases the sores are inveterate, troublesome, and frequently 429 8 | it be inclined too much inwards.~ 430 27| the ulcer be found in an irritable state, being very black 431 21| or some other thing of an irritant nature be applied to the 432 34| occasions inconvenience and irritates any part of the flesh, and 433 31| injuries are attended with irritation. For, generally, the third 434 27| dressing, if there be any itching below the under-bandages, 435 2 | attitude in throwing the javelin, and another in slinging, 436 11| 11. In persons who jumping from any high object pitch 437 38| which go downward to the junction of the bones; and the slender 438 31| little proper to disturb all kinds of wounds as on the third 439 27| are the good effects of knowing how a bandage can be well 440 2 | physician, conceited in his knowledge, would probably not have 441 | last 442 | later 443 13| thus: instead of the naves, lay a moderate-sized beam under 444 21| reduce the swellings, by laying aside the splints, and applying 445 3 | a supine position, could lead him wherever he chose, and 446 1 | physicians who fancy themselves learned in these matters, are they 447 41| displaced (subluxated?) by leaving the cavity of the ulna. 448 8 | but care must be taken lest it be inclined too much 449 16| means lie straight upon some level and soft object, since the 450 3 | walks about, nor when he lies reclined, and will not become 451 38| although the external nerve (ligament?) at the ham arises from 452 | likely 453 7 | protrude; but one should live rather sparingly until the 454 11| worse, the ecchymosed and livid parts, and those surrounding 455 11| not to get worse; but when lividity is complicated with hardness, 456 25| both sides, for a useless load is added to the throbbing 457 20| round by the hip and the loins, so that the groin and the 458 8 | the swelling in the hand, looking also to the strength of 459 30| double thong, and short, like loops, the one set being placed 460 7 | used, such as moderately loosen the bowels; but one should 461 10| and the cure of them when luxuated is more protracted. The 462 13| prepared a proper wooden machine, with all the mechanical 463 14| made proportionate to the magnitude of the luxation, for one 464 19| thigh-bone would exhibit the man maimed. For when the sound limb 465 27| rest is to be more rigidly maintained than in the former cases, 466 46| apt to be attended with malignant fever. The joint, however, 467 1 | I have to give as to the management of the arm; for what I have 468 10| compression and relaxation should manifest themselves in the same times, 469 8 | must perform the proper manipulation, having the one foot on 470 3 | and so many mistakes and marks of ignorance are committed, 471 7 | executed, they are capable of marring the whole process of bandaging: 472 36| large, and contain much marrow; and many important nerves, 473 4 | concealed, there being a thick mass of flesh on the upper side, 474 7 | nothing precise in this matter, for one constitution differs 475 | me 476 3 | from which the fore-arm is measured. Such, and so many mistakes 477 1 | state what the mistakes of medical men are, which I wish to 478 11| we must not give strong medicines, but enjoin abstinence from 479 25| notwithstanding, if they meet with another case of the 480 2 | no doubt certain that the member is thus put into the most 481 35| proper to know that the members are necessarily shortened 482 38| hardly to deserve being mentioned, and therefore affords no 483 | might 484 11| general the contusions are mild, and no great care is required 485 25| the proper place, and what mischiefs would result from applying 486 26| the wound itself a cerate mixed with pitch is to be applied, 487 16| and the bones will be more mobile, and yield more readily 488 13| instead of the naves, lay a moderate-sized beam under the couch, and 489 29| plenty of greasy wool, moistened with wine and oil, should 490 11| hellebore the same day or on the morrow; and the bandages should 491 36| come on, with singultus and mortification. The chances of recovery 492 30| prevented from following the motion of the rest of the body. 493 48| convenient for the subsequent movements, whether of extension or 494 20| be carefully kept off the naked parts at both ends; and 495 | namely 496 27| should be clean and not narrow, and the number of bandages 497 22| embraces the limb from the nates to the foot is of use. And 498 11| lividities of bloody veins, with nausea, and gangrene from pressure; 499 13| done thus: instead of the naves, lay a moderate-sized beam 500 37| he will bring the patient nearer to death than to recovery.~
