- Abstract
-
"The patient lies in a large bed (right), sourly watching four ugly doctors (left) who sit in consultation, their knees close together. Two put old-fashioned gold-headed canes to their mouths. They say respectively: "We must throw in the Bark" [quinine]; "It is all brought on by Drinking"; What you say is very true"; "We must abate the thirst and then cure the fever". The patient says: "Aye aye. I hear you but Ill tell you how to save half the trouble cure the fever, & send me a nice cool tankard of Madeira and Ill abate the thirst myself"."--British Museum online catalogue
