The Expedition of Humphry Clinker — Page 3
Thirdly, with respect to what passed at Mr Kendal's table, when the said Lismahago was so brutal in his reprehensions, I must inform you, my good Sir, that I was obliged to retire, not by fear arising from his minatory reproaches, which, as I said above, I value not of a rush; but from the sudden effect produced, by a barbel's row, which I had eaten at dinner, not knowing, that the said row is at certain seasons violently cathartic, as Galen observeth in his chapter Peri ichtos.
셋째로, 켄달 씨의 식탁에서 있었던 일에 관하여, 즉 리스마하고가 그토록 거칠게 꾸짖었던 그 일에 대해 말씀드리자면, 친애하는 선생님, 저는 자리를 피할 수밖에 없었는데, 그것은 위에서도 말씀드렸듯이 제가 전혀 개의치 않는 그의 협박적인 비난에서 비롯된 두려움 때문이 아니라, 제가 저녁 식사 때 먹은 바벨의 알이 갑작스러운 효과를 일으켰기 때문이었으니, 갈레노스가 그의 저서 페리 익토스 장에서 관찰한 바와 같이, 그 알은 특정 계절에 격렬한 설사를 유발한다는 사실을 제가 알지 못했던 것입니다.
