(IPECACUANHA)

Intermittents, with gastric complaints in each stage,

Post-quinial, with chill coming oftenest at night;

Endless Nausea,” which nothing will serve to assuage;

Cholera Infantum with tongue coated white;

After food that is crude and hard to digest

Comes Diarrhea frothy, with Colic, as if

Umbilical region strong claws did invest;

Has Pertussis, is pale, but with cough, blue and stiff;

And Headaches and Spasms ‘t will aid it is said,

Next Hemorrhage with panting, and color bright red.

And when phlegm fills the Lungs, often exhibited.
