The workings of his mind, and the character of the man, at this time will be best understood by a quotation from the letter he wrote to Hufeland, where he says: Having briefly reviewed, the sad experience of the systems of Sydenham and Hoffmann, of Boerhave and Glaubius, of Stahl, Cullen and de Hean, he continues, But it is, perhaps, the very nature of this art, as great men have asserted that it is incapable of attaining any greater certainty. keywords: disease; hahnemann; hom[oe]opathy; law; life; medical; medicine; physicians; practice; profession; science; system; time; treatment; years cache: 31230.txt plain text: 31230.txt item: #3 of 4 id: 38757 author: None title: New, Old, and Forgotten Remedies: Papers by Many Writers date: None words: 125006 flesch: 73 summary: The following summary of the pathogenetic effects of _Primula_ were produced from handling and in otherwise coming in contact with the plant, and so far as known the poisonous properties are wholly confined to the leaves. _ days. keywords: abdomen; aching; acid; action; alcohol; appetite; arm; attack; bed; blood; body; bowels; case; chest; cold; cough; cure; daily; day; days; disease; doses; drops; drug; dry; effect; eyes; face; feeling; feet; fever; following; fresh; general; good; half; hands; having; head; headache; heart; homoeopathic; hours; itching; left; man; medical; medicine; months; morning; mouth; nat; neck; new; nose; ord; p.m.; pain; paper; parts; patient; plant; preparation.--the; pressure; proving; pulse; region; relief; remedies; remedy; results; right; root; second; sensation; skin; sleep; small; sore; stomach; symptoms; taking; throat; time; tincture; tongue; treatment; tuberculosis; urine; use; water; weeks; weight; years cache: 38757.txt plain text: 38757.txt item: #4 of 4 id: 6481 author: Ellis, John title: Personal Experience of a Physician date: None words: 47820 flesch: 57 summary: When selfish men who were leaders in the churches desired to exercise their love of rule in spiritual and natural things and to exercise despotic power, when they desired to reduce other men to slavery and to hold them as slaves, or when they desired to gratify other perverted passions and sensual appetites, they all went to the Bible and strove to justify their conduct from its pages, with the expectation of reaching heaven at last; for this purpose it required the invention of special doctrines, and these they taught to their children, and thus the Word of God was made of no effect by the traditions and doctrines of men.
