description: These affections I had read are sometimes transitory and sometimes obstinate. I had read of cases in which the appearance at first harmless had step by step degenerated into something direful and insupportable and ended by wearing its victim out. Still as I stood there but for my bestial companion quite alone I tried to comfort myself by repeating again and again the assurance 'the thing is purely disease a well-known physical affection as distinctly as small-pox or neuralgia. Doctors are all agreed on that philosophy demonstrates it. I must not be a fool.
