Camphora Officinarum camph.
Mnemonic names
Camp. / Camper.
Verse
Camphor., with his chilly breath.,
Brings a coldness as of death.
Chills congestive-great distress,
Inward trembling-giddiness.
In the dark a horrid dread,
As if haunted by the dead.
Deathly pallor of the face,
As in Cholera has place.
Yet the skin, though deathly cold,
Will not bear a covering fold.
Pains, sometimes, that shifting, may
Being thought of, pass away.
