Diseases universal but not infectious. Diseases infectious but not universal like noli me tangere. Diseases neither infectious nor universal. Gilbert classifies variolae et morbilli among the universal and infectious diseases, and in the species apostemata. To this latter species belong also ignis Persicus, carbunculus and antrax.
How can anyone find an amusing subject in a poor hard-brained "studiosus," who cannot grasp that rule, inevitable in every career in life, that the second syllable of dropax, antrax, climax "et caethra graeca" in the first case is long, in the second short a rule extremely useful to a man later in life when he gets into some big scrape? But Fanny found it extremely ridiculous.
