Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Letters of Pliny the Consul, Vol. 2: With Occasional Remarks I tell them, should I be attacked with any disorder, I hope I shall desire nothing of which I ought either to be ashamed, or have reason to repent; however, if my distemper should prevail over my judgement, I forbid them to give me any thing but by the consent of my physicians; and I assure the people about me, that I hall resent their compliance with me in things improper, as much as another man would their refusal. I had once a most violent fever; when the fit was a little abated, and I had been anointed, my physician offered me something to drink: I desired he would first feel my pulse; and upon his seeming to think the paroxysm was not quite abated I instantly returned the cup, tho´ it was just at my lips. Afterwards, when I was preparing to go into the bath, twenty days from the first attack of my illness, perceiving the physicians whispering together, I enquired what they were saying. They replied, they were of opinion I might possibly bathe with safety, nevertheless that they were not without some suspicion of hazard.
