The young nobleman died of the small-pox, and Dryden exclaims pathetically, "Was there no milder way than the small-pox, The very filthiness of Pandora's box?" He compares the pustules to "rosebuds stuck i' the lily skin about," and says that "Each little pimple had a tear in it To wail the fault its rising did commit." But he has not done his worst yet, by a great deal.
There was the sound of a kiss, a muffled shriek, and she had run from the room, slamming the door behind her, whereupon the languid gentleman went back to his pimple. "Oh! as to that, Chester, I quarrel only with the climate. God made England, and the devil sends the weather!"
At all events, so poorly are these pus-germs able to preserve their vigor and power of attack, not merely outside of the human body, but outside of some wound or sore spot, that it is practically certain that eight-tenths of all cases of wound-infection or blood-poisoning come directly from some previous festering wound, sore, ulcer, scab, boil, or pimple, in or on some other human being or animal.
If Rosalinda is unfortunate in her Mole, Nigranilla is as unhappy in a Pimple, which forces her, against her Inclinations, to Patch on the Whig Side. I am told that many virtuous Matrons, who formerly have been taught to believe that this artificial Spotting of the Face was unlawful, are now reconciled by a Zeal for their Cause, to what they could not be prompted by a Concern for their Beauty.
She has a little motherly pimple on the left side of her nose that is misleading at first, but on examination she is readily recognized; probably Raffaelle's model had the pimple too, but Raffaelle left it out as he would. Handel, of course, is Madame Patey. Give Madame Patey Handel's wig and clothes, and there would be no telling her from Handel.
The name "sore" is deceptive and often misleads laymen, since there may be no actual sore merely a pinhead-sized pimple, a hard place, or a slight chafe. The development of a syphilitic infection can also be completely concealed by the occurrence of some other infection in the same place at the same time, as in the case of a mixed infection with syphilis and soft ulcers or chancroids.
"Your know, Mustapha, as well as I do, that it is almost impossible not to draw blood, if there happens to be a pimple, or a bad razor; but, however, proceed, Menouni, and if possible marry this beautiful princess."
Long life to him! I'm sure I love to look upon his picture, now opposite to me; though I never saw him, he must have been a portly gentleman his neck something short, and remarkable for the largest pimple on his nose, which, by his particular desire, is still extant in his picture, said to be a striking likeness, though taken when young.
"M. Ferrand generous! he would skin an egg!" "And yet the forty sous for our breakfast?" "Beautiful proof! It is like a pimple on the end of a man's nose it is an accident." "Yes, but, on the other hand, the head clerk told me that three days ago he sold out an enormous amount of treasury bonds, and that " "Well! speak then." "It is a secret." "So much the more reason for telling it."
"Thou Mæotian copper-nose!" "Thou Ligurian mule!" "Thy skin is itching, evidently, but I don't advise thee to ask me to scratch it." "Scratch thyself. If thou scratch thy own pimple, thou wilt destroy what is best in thee." And in this manner they attacked him. He defended himself venomously, amid universal laughter. Cæsar, clapping his hands, repeated, "Macte!" and urged them on.
