L'Estrange: An Impertinent Dr. and his Patient
A Physician was told one Morning that a certain Patient of his was dead. Why then the Lord's Will be done, says he: We are all Mortal: But if this Man would have forborn Wines, and us'd Clysters, I'd have warranted his Life this Bout for God-a-Mercy. Well, says one, but why did not you rather give him this Advice when it might have done him good, than stand talking of it to no manner of Purpose now the Man is dead.
