Verse

Causticum,-Thou paralytic,
Victim of arthiritic pain!
With whom spasms, and chorea,
And neuralgic ills obtain.
That thou hast paretic ailments,-
Drooping lids, and throbbing throat,
Urine flow involuntary,
And aphonia denote.
Thine a thorax sore, with hoarseness,
Cough that makes thy urine spout,
Cough and hawking raising mucus,
Without poser to cast it out.
In thy ears all sounds re-echo,
In thy eyes a sense of sand,
In thy rectum piles so tender
That thou canst not walk or stand.
In the night not still one minute,
During night the menses cease,
Shine thy stools like ribbons greasy,
In thy mouth a taste of grease.
