Pagina 436 - Between the acting of a dreadful thing And the first motion, all the interim is Like a phantasma, or a hideous dream : The genius, and the mortal instruments, Are then in council; and the state of man, Like to a little kingdom, suffers then The nature of an insurrection.
Pagina 27 - Go — you may call it madness, folly ; You shall not chase my gloom away. There's such a charm in melancholy, I would not, if I could, be gay.
Pagina 427 - I afterwards continued in attendance. The history of the case was this : — The patient was a cavalry officer of rank, aged thirty-five, and had particularly distinguished himself at the then recent battle of Waterloo. On that occasion he had two horses killed under him, and was himself wounded in four places : he was first struck on the crown of his helmet by the splinter of a shell, which wounded the scalp and stunned him; he was next shot through the fleshy part of the thigh by a grape shot,...
Pagina 39 - I do not recollect," he says, " an instance of insanity implying a religious source in any person stedfiist to his ancient opinions. Wherever it was suspected to emanate from such a cause, it was clearly to be traced to circumstances which had diverted the lunatic from the authority of primary principles, to the adoption of new tenets, which he had not comprehended, and therefore had misapplied.

Pagina 37 - I spoke a few words to pacify her, and she went to bed. The next night she said she was better, but she appeared very low. On Wednesday night, on coming home, she said to me, ' I am tempted to murder my mother !' I said, I was surprised she should think of murdering me ; and she said,
Pagina 68 - Gal! was requested to say, from the organs exhibited in a certain bust, what was the predominant propensity, or faculty of the individual. He pronounced the original must be a great poet.
