No man could look down into a certain pair of sparkling eyes that are wonderfully familiar to me and talk about things as 'morbific' or 'renascent.' ❋ Frank Boreham (1915)
Therefore any single dimension of health cannot be considered in isolation, as the human organism works, as an integrated whole always, whether performing its normal functions or defending itself from morbific stimuli. ❋ Tusar N Mohapatra (2006)
The febrile paroxysm is fully formed, whilst the preternatural heat kindled in the heart is thence diffused by the arteries through the whole body along with the morbific matter, which is in this way overcome and dissolved by nature. ❋ Unknown (2005)
In tertian fever, the morbific cause seeking the heart in the first instance, and hanging about the heart and lungs, renders the patient short-winded, disposed to sighing, and indisposed to exertion, because the vital principle is oppressed and the blood forced into the lungs and rendered thick. ❋ Unknown (2005)
This morbific material is best understood by regarding it as being in an incomplete or half-way stage, in which form it is injurious. ❋ Unknown (2004)
And, you see, what makes this even more remarkable is that during the dark month of January, my first month with the aunt and uncle, I had fallen into a morbific depression and so had prescribed to myself the cure of reading lots of Wodehouse. ❋ Jonathan Ames (2004)
Thomas Sydenham, the seventeenth-century physician known as the ‘English Hippocrates’, wrote, ‘Disease is nothing else but an attempt of the body to rid itself of morbific matter’. ❋ Daniel Reid (1989)
The disease itself was Nature's struggle to re - store health by elimination of the morbific matter. ❋ OWSEI TEMKIN (1968)
When the humors of the body could not be concocted, or when they contracted “a morbific blemish from this or that at - mospheric constitution” (ibid.), or when they turned poisonous because of a contagion, then they were ❋ OWSEI TEMKIN (1968)
Within there would be, as the unit of construction, each sepulchre so constructed that anhydrous air could enter, or could be made to enter and withdraw, laden with moisture and morbific matter, which it would convey to a separate structure, where a furnace would complete the sanitary work that the anhydrous air had begun, and return to the external atmosphere nothing that would be noxious. ❋ Various (N/A)
The flesh dries up and the organism becomes less and less capable of resisting morbific influences. ❋ Joel Dorman Steele (N/A)
"You have won," she thought, regarding the murky thickets that were hung with morbific blossoms, the trees that remained a labyrinth even while they dissolved in the night. ❋ Stephen French Whitman (N/A)
This word, therefore, is the one best suited to designate this specific ferment in question, and I have on this account, employed it and its adjectival derivatives in order not to resuscitate the idea of the exclusively paludal origin of the morbific agent. ❋ Various (N/A)
He claimed that disease was nothing more than an effort on the part of nature to restore the health of the patient by the elimination of the morbific matter. ❋ Louis Dechmann (N/A)
In such a case, the medicine first excites a combat between the morbific force and the conservative reaction. ❋ C. W. Wolf (N/A)
But in Dr. Clarke's theory this period has a peculiar influence in rendering morbific conditions that at other times are innocuous. ❋ Anna Callender Brackett (N/A)
It is evident, however, that if such exhaustion had been produced previous to the menstrual epoch, the effect would be precisely the same as if the morbific causes operated only at the time of menstruation. ❋ Anna Callender Brackett (N/A)
