Excerpt from Gunn's Domestic Medicine, or Poor Man's Friend, in the Hours of Affliction, Pain and Sickness: This Book Points Out, in Plain Language Free From Doctors' Terms, the Diseases of Men, Women, and ChildrenMan, in the early days of nature, lived in a state of health, both in body and in mind: The earth produc ed its fruits for him without culture, there were neither irregularities nor inclemencies of the seasons. In a state of innocency, and undera mild and clement sky, there was nothing to produce disease, spring was perpetual. Protected by the immediate presence of the almighty, and as yet innocent of any violations of his law, he was happy in the enjoyments which the spontaneous benevolence of nature afforded him. But he has been the artificer of his own untoward des times. He has transgressed the sacred laws of his creator - and incurred the penalties annexed to his own transgressions! His days are now shortened, and encumbered with disease, spring is no longer per petual, for him now. The earth brings forth thorns and and for him the world has been visited with earthquakes, sterility, storms, and variations of the seasons, which blight the fruits of his labors, and bring mortal diseases and fatal maladies on their wings.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
