with indigested parts of the coagulum of milk. The indigestion 

 is owing to the torpor of the stomach and intestines caused by 

 their association with the membranes of the gums, which are now 

 stimulated into great exertion with pain; both which contribute 

 to expend the general quantity of sensorial power, which belongs 

 to this membranous association; and thus the stomach and intes- 

 tines act with less than their natural energy. This is generally 

 esteemed a favourable symptom in difficult dentition, as the pain 

 of the alveolar membranes exhausts the sensorial power without 

 producing convulsions for its relief. See Class 1.1.4. 5. And 

 the diarrhoea ceases, as the tooth advances.
