3} Original Poetry: 
inftances by expofure to a cold air, after 
which, has been obferved a fullnefs of the 
veflels of the tunica conjunétiva, accom- 
panied with confiderable pain, an effufien 
of tears, and intolerance of light. There 
is gener ally a difcharge of an acrimonious 
fluid, which during the night clofes the 
eyes, and renders fome emollient applica- 
tion neceffary ior the more eafy feparation 
of the eye li tds. 
This difeaie, though the fymptoms at 
the firft appearance may be very fimilar, 
admits of a great variety of treatment, 
depending on the general ftate of the con- 
ftitution, the original caufe, and varying 
circumiftances of the cafe. Thefe have 
‘been fo accurately diftinguifhed, and fo 
judicious a mode of treatment has been re- 
commended by Mr. Ware in his different 
writings on the fubjeét, that we cannot 
do better than direét the attenticn of the 
practitioner to this fource of informa- 
tren.

Jove fave great Thefeus: long live noble 
Thefeus ! ; 
Theleus: Silence, Athenians, carelefs of my 
forrows, 
Here to the forum ye have dragg’d my fteps 
To hear the tale of ail we underwent, 
And now your frantic fhouts deny me audience.

AL PO LIT EA 
To pour libations on a father’s tomb 5 
My locks to fhear and hallow to his manes. 
Not the dark veil which grief with heavy hand 
Has cotid- around my brow to you is facred— 
Peace, then, Athenians, once for all, and hear. 
Chorus. Peace, peace, ye men of Athens, ~ 
hufh and hear. 
Thefeus: For Crete, with ees wind, ye 
know we fail’d, 
In Crete with favouring windwe fafely landed, 
I, with the feven youths, and feven maids, 
And all your other tributary gifts. 
Our veffel drawn upon the ftrand, we march’d 
In orderly proceffion, crown’d witht garlands, 
Between long hedges of applauding Cretans, 
Who gaz’d delighted on my fair companions, 
To Minos’ palace. 
Cruel tho’ he feem, 
And for this Minotaur, this monfter-god, 
Hid in deep labyrinths by guardian priefts, 
From Athens have exaéted many a year 
Corn, oil, and wine, and for its ferver’s fervice, 
The flower of beauty, and the bloom of youth, 
Galling to us as really was his yoke,
