MEDICAL THOUGHTS
OF
SHAKESPEARE.
By B. RUSH FIELD, M. D.,
MEMBER OF THE SHAKESPEARE SOCIETY
OF NEW YORK.
SECOND EDITION, REVISED AND ENLARGED.
EASTON, PA.:
ANDREWS & CLIFTON, PUBLISHERS.
1885.
TO THE MEDICAL PROFESSION.
PREFACE TO SECOND EDITION.
The occasion is taken to acknowledge the kind consideration that the first edition of this little work has received. This edition appears in a thoroughly revised and much enlarged form; to what extent, may be judged by the fact that chapters on The Physician, Surgery, Physiology, Anatomy and Pharmacy have been added, together with many allusions to the other medical subjects, making an increase of over four hundred quotations. It has been impossible to resist the temptation of adding a few medical thoughts from other authors, which will be found under their appropriate heads. The labor necessary to accomplish this has not interfered in any way with professional duties; it being a task entirely of the leisure hours of the night.
Easton, Pennsylvania, June, 1885.
