Opium op.

Op. / (Stupid.) / Opie.

Opium,-Thou drowsy plant,
In secretions always scant.
Save in sweat, which we behold,
Quit profuse, with forehead cold.
Thine a stupor, breathing slow,
With a face of ruddy glow.
Burning eyes, and pupils small,
As in apoplectic thrall.
As an oven hot, thy bed,
Vertigo betides thy head,
Though long vigils though shouldst keep,
Yet thou art deprived of sleep.
From thy bowels all drain may stop,
Or perhaps unnoticed drop.
Stools be moulded into balls,
Pressing pain attend the calls.
Pressure toward the groin extending,
As if hernia impending.
To be worse thy ills include,
After sleep, and warmth, and wine.

Opie,-Has apoplexy.
