They rose to receive me, and I presented Madame Hahnemann a letter from Herr Dr. Hirschfeldt of Bremen, an eminent physician, who had formerly been a pupil of Hahnemann's While Madame Hahnemann was glancing through the letter, I had an opportunity of taking a survey of Hahnemann's person, for he had not yet resumed his seat. His slender and diminutive form was enveloped in a flowered dressing gown of rich materials, and too comfortable in its appearance to be of other than...
Стр. 31 - But if there was any consolation to be found in the knowledge that others were even worse off than ourselves, I might have comforted myself by looking in the opposite direction.

Стр. 75 - Hahnemann was undoubtedly a man of genius and a scholar, a man of indefatigable industry, of undaunted energy.

Стр. 28 - The register of his consultations, every day increasing in magnitude, forms at this moment a stupendous Medical Encyclopaedia. We have seen upon one of the shelves of Hahnemann's library, thirty-six quarto volumes of at least 500 pages each, entirely written by his own hand...
Стр. 56 - His own image, should, by the efforts of his penetrating mind, that has been breathed into him from above, find out the way to discover remedies in the stupendous kingdom of created things, which should be able to deliver his brethren of mankind from their sufferings, worse than death itself?
Стр. 47 - The crown of his large, beautifully- proportioned head was covered by a skull-cap of black velvet. From beneath it strayed a few, thin, snowy locks, which clustered about his noble forehead, and spoke of the advanced age, which the lingering freshness of his florid complexion seemed to deny. His eyes were dark, deep set, glittering, and full of animation. As he greeted me, he removed from his mouth a long painted pipe, the bowl of which nearly reached to his knees. But after the first salutation...
Стр. 33 - I knew that the lady who had so kindly acted as my conductress, was a person of rank, for I had noticed the coat of arms on the panels of her coach, and remarked that her attendants were clothed in livery. But to meet with civility from strangers is of so common an occurrence in France, that her graciousness awakened in me no surprise. I subsequently...
Стр. 51 - ... attendance conducted me down stairs, and handed me into the carriage; and I drove home, passing along a file of coaches, stretching from Hahnemann's door rather further than I could venture to mention and expect to be believed.
