Upon vifiting him in the Morning, the Nurfe in*' 
formed me, That, after having taken two Bolus's, 
he had flept about half an Hour, to his infinite Re-

Mind more compofed ,* and his Horrors were fo far 
mitigated, to fwallow half a Pint of Ale at one 
Draught, tho’ not without Repugnance. He ftill com- 
plained of living in a Flame; his Eyes ready to ftart 
out of his Head, where his Pain ftill remained acute; 
not without Numbnefs in the difeafed Arm; Inquie- 
tude; Difficulty in Swallowing and Refpiration.

flept near three Hours. The Symptoms appeared lefs 
violent the next Day, but ftill threatened Mifchief.
