I must not dismiss, however, the treatment of acute rheu- matism altogether without making one or two additional remarks, for fear that in time to come you may fancy that I have not represented the matter quite fairly and honestly. When some years hence you have gained abundant experience of this disease for yourselves, I can well imagine you comment- ing upon me and my practice thus: — "It is all very well to talk of bleeding, and opium, and calomel, and purgatives, curing acute rheumatism, an...d setting patients upon their legs in a week or two ; so they will, in many cases. But cases are frequently occurring, in which neither singly nor conjointly will they do any thing of the kind. " LECT. XI. ] TREATMENT OF ACUTE RHEUMATISM. 133 Now this I believe to be the common fault of writers and lecturers, and of all who in any manner, or any where, under- take to teach practical medicine, except at the bedside of the patient, that they give much too favourable a representation of their subject.
