MIND.
►
Slight but long-continued drunkenness, which made him very talkative,
but indolent (after one hour). ► A
sudden great change in him after micturition; it seemed as though
everything had become more beautiful and brighter before his eyes, and
the sky and trees more joyous and clear; but after a quarter of an hour
everything became gloomy again (after five hours). ►
Constantly desirous of sitting alone and reflecting.
HEAD.
►
Confusion and Vertigo. ►

Whirling in the head while sitting, the houses at a distance seem to
turn bottom upwards (after six hours). ►
General Head. ► The whole
night, headache, burning in the eyes, very much thirst, and much
micturition (first day). ► In the
evening, headache, nausea, vomiting, with subsequent bitterness of the
mouth, much thirst for cold water, and perspiration after drinking. [10.] ►
Headache, as from a sticking from all sides at once, or as if everything
were drawn together from within, recurring like a slow pulsation (first
day). ► Headache, as if something was
rolling in the head, with burning in it coming out at the eyes, with
lachrymation; no relief from cold water; at last he became nauseated,
was obliged to vomit, but the headache was still worse thereby, in the
evening, lasting into the night (first day). ►

disappearing. ► Red vessels from the
inner canthus to the cornea (after four hours). ►
Subjective. ► He is unable
to close the eyes in the evening on account of burning in them; this
also prevents his sleeping at night (first night). ►

them, and looks into the glass to see, in the evening (first day). [20.] ►
Violent internal itching in the eyes and nose in the evening (third
day). ► Lachrymal Apparatus. ► He is unable to look at the sun, the eyes

becomes inflamed (after fifteen minutes). ►
On looking intently at anything, everything is in order, but if he only
looks ahead of him, everything wavers before his eyes and becomes
