Verse

Cantharis, burns where'er he acts,
His choice, the urinary tracts.
But in the stomach bowel or skin,
He burns-alike without or in.
Voids scalding urine, drop by drop,
Or causes urine flow to stop.
Blisters-and ulcers from the same-
And erysipelas, are his game.
His stools are bloody, skinny shreds.
To take a drink he greatly dreads.
A drink of coffee disagrees,
But rubbing may induce some ease.
