Nitricum Acidum nit-ac.

Nit. A. / (Night-Dark.) / Nick.

Nitric acid,-Thou the genius
To corrode with ulcer sore,
Paining as from splinter sticking,
Skin and bone and mucous floor.
Thine the syphillitic lesion,
Condyloma-pimple-wart.
And a purulent ophthalmia,
Of a syphilitic sort.
With a cornea ulcerated,
And a mouth of odor foul;
Rising from an ulceration
That may reach to throat and bowel.
Thine a cracking of jaw when chewing,
Headache as from vise-like band;
And a cough with yellow sputum
And enlargement of the gland.
Stitching pains invade thy stomach,
Tender oft thy abdomen.
Hard thy stools sometimes, and painful,
Smarting burns thy anus then.
Stitches dart in thy urethra,
Strong thy urine in its scent,
Like that of a horse's urine,
Sometimes, feeling cold to vent.
Chancres, with offensive moisture,
On the genitals are seen;
Whilst thy wife has, in her ailing,
Leucorrhoea foul and green.
Night sweat is a frequent symptom,
Mostly every other night;
Also cramp in calf occurring
Often putting sleep to flight.
Thine a state of sheer exhaustion,
As if from dyspepsia ill;
Tended with a morbid craving,
For things indigestable.
Or perhaps, a hungry longing
For fat food, or herring smoked.
Whilst perhaps there be aversion,
To all bread and meat evoked.
Better thou when in carriage
Riding out thy friends to greet.
Worse at night, and worse on waking,
Worse on rising from a seat.
