Re: MATERIA MEDICA QUIZ - Aconitum napellus (Mind & General)
Dear lovers of Stacy's poems,
here the one on Aconitum napellus:
Aconite, as in fright,
First with chill thou art ill,
Then with burning, tossing, turning,
Tissues sore, thirst galore,
Twitching in beneath the skin,
Head bedazed when upraised,
Pain severe, anxious fear
Prophesying date of dying.
Stacy Jones, The Mnemonic Similad
(Philadelphia Boericke and Tafel 1904)
You can get those poems in the web, they are a free
download; just be pesistent - the server is down form time to time,
butif keep on trying every now and then, you'll succeed.
Other links might not work, because the page has moved to another site
in the year 2000 and some webpages still got the outdated link.
All the best and lucky download
