Are with a weary languor seized;

The sickly cheek with fever burns,

And all the head with loathsome sores

Is blotched. Now heated vapors rise

And scorch with fever's flames the brain

Within the body's citadel,

And the throbbing temples swell with blood. 185

The eyeballs start; the accurséd fire

Devours the limbs; the ears resound,

And from the nostrils dark blood drips
