As for the lady doctor in fiction, her advantages would be awful to contemplate in sickness, when we are weak and fevered, and absurdly grateful for a newly-beaten pillow or a morsel of ice.

The handle of a spoon pressed against the velum, the base of the tongue, and the pharynx, provoked no effort at vomiting.
