affected with loss of sleep, aversion to food, and had thirst and

nausea. She lived near the Pylates, upon the Plain. On the first, at

the commencement of night, frights, much talking, despondency,

slight fever; in the morning, frequent spasms, and when they ceased,

she was incoherent and talked obscurely; pains frequent, great and

continued. On the second, in the same state; had no sleep; fever

more acute. On the third, the spasms left her; but coma, and

disposition to sleep, and again awaked, started up, and could not

contain herself; much incoherence; acute fever; on that night a

copious sweat all over; apyrexia, slept, quite collected; had a

crisis. About the third day, the urine black, thin, substances

floating in it generally round, did not fall to the bottom; about

the crisis a copious menstruation.

CASE XII. In Larissa, a young unmarried woman was seized with a

fever of the acute and ardent type; insomnolency, thirst; tongue sooty

and dry; urine of a good color, but thin. On the second, in an

uneasy state, did not sleep. On the third, alvine discharges

copious, watery, and greenish, and on the following days passed such

with relief. On the fourth, passed a small quantity of thin urine,

having substances floating towards its surface, which did not subside;

was delirious towards night. On the sixth, a great hemorrhage from the

nose; a chill, with a copious and hot sweat all over; apyrexia, had

a crisis. In the fever, and when it had passed the crisis, the

menses took place for the first time, for she was a young woman.

Throughout she was oppressed with nausea, and rigors; redness of the

face; pain of the eyes; heaviness of the head; she had no relapse, but

the fever came to a crisis. The pains were on the even days.

CASE XIII. Apollonius, in Abdera, bore up (under the fever?) for

some time, without betaking himself to bed. His viscera were enlarged,

and for a considerable time there was a constant pain about the liver,

and then he became affected with jaundice; he was flatulent, and of

a whitish complexion. Having eaten beef, and drunk unseasonably, he
