Natrum Muriaticum nat-m.

Nat. m. / (2nd N- Salt) / Nathan.

Natrum mur., - Without a doubt
Thou art China's equal,
When malaria is about,
Or its lurking sequel.
Blisters round thy mouth, and in
Itching blotch and tetter,
With a dry or shining skin,
Show thy scurvy fetter.
Violent thy fever thirst,
In the heat of ague,
When thy head would seem to burst,
Worse if cough assay, too.
Weak thy limbs, and muscles slack,
Heart beats intermitting,
Backache, better on the back
Lying - not when sitting.
Sore thy red and mattery eyes,
Giving out by using;
Fogs before thy sight arise,
Letters blend confusing.
'Neath thy lids are sandy grains,
Scraping in the morning;
In the morning ague trains
Due at 10 - give warning.
Flushed and pale thy urine pools,
Oft by coughing starting;
Constipated are thy stools,
Anus fissured smarting.
Yet in children thou wilt check
Diarrhoea -- dozy,
With emaciated neck,
And a left cheek rosy.
Melancholic is thy mind,
Worse by constipation;
Suffering when in heat confined,
Food gives aggravation.
Strong thy appetite for salt,
Bread and coffee fending;
Heartburn, gnaws thy gastric vault,
Water brash attending.
