Tho very bone seems to be crumbling wherever the demon of gout pinches. There are moments in the life of every THE PHILOSOPHY OF SUFFERING. 251 gouty man when it seems as if nothing would be so refresh- ing as to indulge for a while in the use of that energetic diction, savouring more of strength than of righteousness, which is common among cavalry troops and gentlemen of the seafaring profession, but which, in society, is considered to be a little in advance of the prejudices of the age. No hi...gher encomium could be passed upon a gouty man than to say that, with all his torments, he never swore, and was seldom petulant. But there are very few whose merits deserve this canonization. But gout, with all its pains, has yet its redeeming char- acteristics. That great law of compensation which reduces the inequalities of our lot, and makes Brown, Jones, and Robinson come out about even in the long run, is not in- operative here. The gout is painful, but its respectability is unquestionable.
