Dr. WINTER's QUESTIONS to Dr. CHENEY

by

Listen in the reader

Tell me from what fat-headed Scot Thou didst thy system learn: From Hippocrate thou hadst it not, From Celsus nor Pitcairn.

Suppose we own that milk is good, And say the same of grass; The one for babes is proper food, The other for an ass.

Doctor, this new prescription try; A friend's advice forgive: Eat grass, reduce thy head, or die, Thy patients then may live.
