THE LADY DOCTOR. There is a lady in our square As fair as fair can be, And she has taken, I am told, A Medical Degree: And now my aspiration is That she may doctor me. Imean to feign I‘ve caught a chill Somewhere upon my liver, Am haunted by rheumatic pains, Do nought but ache and shiver, Feel icy cold about the heart; Nerves all. too, in a quiver. She’ll come and look into my eyes With kindly contemplation, She’ll feel my pulse, and that will rouse A gentle palpitation. And then my symptoms all at once Will change to ‘inflammation.’ She'll not perceive, I fondly trust. I’m trying to deceive her. But diagnose my case at once As ‘intermittent fever,’ And I shall murmur to myself: ‘By Jove! I quite believe her.’ Clarke’s R 11 Pills are warranted to euro Gravel, Pains in the back, and all kindred complaints. Free from Mercury. Established upwards of 30 years.
