Mnemonic names

Amy. / Amy.

Verse

Amyl's sanguine current rushes
To the face with reddening flushes.
Starts a heart-pang; thence proceeding,
Sets the nose or lungs to bleeding.
Then brings state of nerve chaotic,
Fits- and fainting- pains spasmodic;
And including in its grouping
Asthma dire and cough with whooping.
Daily inhalations, short, are
Cure for exophthalmic goitre.
Decimal drops I would propose
As the most befitting dose.
