Consumption, ghastly messenger of death, how many cheeks have paled as thou with stealthy footsteps and almost noiseless tread hast glided into the sanctuary of their home ; how many young mothers hast thou laid in an early tomb ; how many bright golden links, uniting hearts in fond affection, severed with thy corroding touch ; how many barks freighted with the wealth of genius, of beauty, of deep and holy love, have gone down into the dark ocean of death at thy bidding ! To move on, day after ...day, week after week, and perhaps month after month, your friends feeling that with each revolving sun the hectic flush is growing brighter, the step more feeble, the form more attenuated, and the stern and perhaps unwelcome truth at length forcing itself upon your own mind, for the victim is too often buoyed up with a delusive hope, and the last to awake to his real situation, that the sands in your hour- glass are fast running out, that death is drawing you PULMONARY CONSUMPTION. 187 on, slowly it may be, yet with a strength, you cannot resist, to his cold embrace, into that dim and shadowy spirit world, where his power ends, and the roar of time's waves is never heard this is consumption.
