But Beatrix passed her by, nor would she have any of the medicaments of the spiritual physician. "I am best in my own room and by myself," she said. Her eyes were quite dry; nor did Esmond ever see them otherwise, save once, in respect to that grief.
It was easy for her to gather as much, in spite of the mystery Lacoste made of them; she had seen him rubbing his limbs at times with medicaments, and at others she had seen him taking medicines internally. He was always vexed when she found him at it. She did not know what doctor prescribed the medicaments, nor the pharmacist who supplied them.
He had heard Miss Ophelia speak often of a cough, that all her medicaments could not cure; and even now that fervent cheek and little hand were burning with hectic fever; and yet the thought that Eva's words suggested had never come to him till now. Has there ever been a child like Eva?
I assured him that my apparent exemption from the effects of passing years was perfectly natural, and was not due to drugs or medicaments. "Joshua lived many years after that day, and did a good deal of excellent military work; but his life was not long enough to satisfy him.
Whether such medicaments are serviceable to the soul is problematic. Tiberius had other drugs on the ivory shelves magic preparations that transported him to fabulous fields.
The doctor did not at all relish the idea of taking his own drugs, but he was careful not to betray his dislike, for he was in a decidedly ticklish position.

A draught of beer will do as much good as all the salves and medicaments. "Do you take the first drink, Jock Samlen, and then go up to the watchtower. I see the men have been posted in the wall turrets. One of them shall relieve you, shortly."
Thou wilt but have fair time to make ready all that thou wilt need beds, medicaments, aromatic wood, and perfumes and gather round thee a few faithful, trusty souls who will not fly at the approach of danger.
You take these precautions because your most elementary common sense tells you that such precautions as medicaments, etc., enter for something of a condition in the decree of God which reads that you shall die or not die.
The search for the explanation of diseased states in modified cell-life; the discovery of the important part played by parasitic organisms in the aetiology of disease; the elucidation of the action of medicaments by the methods and the data of experimental physiology; appear to me to be the greatest steps which have ever been made towards the establishment of medicine on a scientific basis.
