490 SUPPLEMENT. 



(after repeated efforts) a perfect frame or 

 skeleton, and reeling three or four feet from 

 the carpet he was laid on, threw up (with 

 very little exertion or straining) near half a 

 pint of viscid limpid coagulumj so tenacious 

 and adhesive that there was not the least 

 possibility of partial separation. After this 

 emotion, he could not return to the spot he 

 had arisen from without assistance ; to which, 

 being carried and laid down, he appeared 

 somewhat more at case, 



Still convinced no satistactory termination 

 could be obtained, or even expected, with- 

 out farther exertions; and not entertaining 

 the least doubt, by symptoms before describ- 

 ed, but the intestines were equally the seat 

 of disease, and principally concerned in the 

 orii^in of complaint, without the power of 

 reaching that cause by any other means, I 

 was determined to persevere in my experi- 

 ments, and proceeded accordingly in the fol- 

 lowing preparation : 



Strong decoction of rue, lialf a piid ; 



JKinitive electuary, and connnon salt, of cacli a 



quartet of an ounce ; 

 0\\SQ oil; tsvo table-spoon fuLs.
