AN ESSAY ON HEADACHS, AND ON THEIR CURE, BY WALTER VAUGHAN, M.D. OF THE ROYAL COLLEGE OF PHYSICIANS IN LONDON. LONDON: PUBLISHED BY LONGMAN, HURST, REES, ORME, BROWN, 1825. Num igitur aut Haruspex, aut Augur, aut Vates quis, aut somnians melius conjecerit, aut è morbo evasurum aegrotum, aut è Periculo Navem, aut ex Insidiis Exercitum, quam Medicus, quam Gubernator, quam Imperator. Cicero, de Divinatione, Lib. secund. W. Wildash, Printer, High-street, Rochester. I humbly presume to inscribe to your Lordship the following Essay on Headachs, in Testimony of my great Esteem and Respect; and as an acknowledgment of how much I have been delighted, and how much I have been improved at Cobham Hall, by that Example, ever shown there, of Regard to the Objects of moral Duty; the Deity, our Fellowcreatures, and ourselves. He, however, who would do Justice to your Lordship's Character, should himself be possessed of more Merit and Distinction than I am: but I cannot suppress, that I shall ever be sensible of the Favours received from your Lordship, and shall ever retain those Sentiments of Gratitude and of Duty which become me, Your LORDSHIP'S most obliged and most devoted Servant, WALTER VAUGHAN. |
