Aph 79 - Organon 6

[Soroush Ebrahimi]

§ 79
Hitherto syphilis alone has been to some extent known as such a chronic miasmatic disease, which
when uncured ceases only with the termination of life. Sycosis (the condylomatous disease), equally
ineradicable by the vital force without proper medicinal treatment, was not recognized as a chronic
miasmatic disease of a peculiar character, which it nevertheless undoubtedly is, and physicians
imagined they had cured it when they had destroyed the growths upon the skin, but the persisting
dyscrasia occasioned by it escaped their observation.
