THIRTY-SIXTH PAPER.

It is a quarter past one o’clock.

The following are my sensations at present: a violent pain in my head,

my frame chilled, my forehead burning. Every time that I rise, or bend

forward, it seems to me that there is a fluid floating in my head, which

makes my brain beat violently against the bone.

I have convulsive startings, and from time to time my pen falls from my

hand as if by a galvanic shock. My eyes ache and burn, and I suffer

greatly in all my limbs.

In two hours and three-quarters hence, _all will be cured_.
