Description |
English: See BMSat 10332. A doctor sits by a curtained bed, feeling the pulse of an aged woman (r.). On a table (l.) are the nozzle of a clyster-pipe, with ragged fragments of its bag, a knife and fork, medicine bottles, &c. He says reflectively, holding his cane to his chin: "Upon my Word Madam, you are surprizingly better! I told you what a prodigious Effect the Clyster would produce - No doubt you felt it give you instant Relief." She answers: "I took it the Moment it came - the Broth was well enough tho' rather poor - The Meat was very tough - I thought I should have lost my only fore-tooth in biting it - but I made a Shift to pick the Marrow-Bone clean as you see it on the Table." c.1804

Licensing[edit]
This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag. Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag. |
