Two hours later he was writhing on the ground with a violent stomach-ache. It was forty-eight hours after when he ate again, and then of his old food nuts and berries. But the craving returned in a week, and he again killed a pig, but was compelled to forego eating it for lack of fire.
"Why, yes, well, many find comfort in it, I believe; there is much to be said, there are many bad people, and bad children, I can't be so sure about bad babies, though they cry very malignantly at times, especially if they have the stomach-ache.
Finally, this quality, which is considered as a virtue, and to entitle us to the rewards bestowed upon it by the fair sex, who value it above all others, is so wholly out of our control, that when suffering under sickness or disease, it deserts us; nay, for the time being, a violent stomach-ache will turn a hero into a poltroon.
Then, furious at the obstinacy of this intellectual bourgeois, I swore I would play on to the death. Often, when I was a child, I wished to kill myself in order to vex others. Our nurse had told her my dislike to this form of nourishment, adding that every morning I emptied the panade into the slop-pail. I had, of course, a very bad stomach-ache, and screamed out in pain.
"Yes, you did! Then why did you let him into the place?" Keggs snorted triumphantly. "There! You admit it! It was that feller!" Too late Albert saw his false move a move which in a normal state of health, he would have scorned to make. Just as Napoleon, minus a stomach-ache, would have scorned the blunder that sent his Cuirassiers plunging to destruction in the sunken road.
"I suppose the usual excuses for his wife's not calling?" "Neuralgia," said Mrs. Nevill Tyson, with a grin. "Neuralgia! Why couldn't he give her a stomach-ache for a change?" Now, when Tyson expressed his opinion of Sir Peter with such delightful frankness, both he and Mrs.
Cocker was heard to say nothing more than 'Ah-h-h! Indeed; thank you! Yes, and shortly afterwards went out, a milder man. The lonely traveller with the stomach-ache had all this time suffered severely, drawing up a leg now and then, and sipping hot brandy-and-water with grated ginger in it.
The pain is like that of stomach-ache or colic, the child crying and drawing up its legs on every attempt to pass water, which sometimes is voided only in a few drops at a time, and now and then is completely suppressed for some hours. The very acute form of the ailment seldom occurs, except in infants who inherit from their parents a disposition to gouty or rheumatic affections.
Boche remarked that just having to wait and watch the goose being carved had been enough to make the veal and pork slide down to his ankles. Then ensued a famous tuck-in; that is to say, not one of the party recollected ever having before run the risk of such a stomach-ache.
He never drank wine, but, on the other hand, was an enormous eater; so that, like his father in youth, he was perpetually suffering from stomach-ache as the effect of his gluttony. He was devotedly attached to his queen, and had never known, nor hardly looked at, any other woman. He had no vice but gambling, in which he indulged to a great extent, very often sitting up all night at cards.
