Memoirs of the Celebrated Boerhaave.  Herman Boerhaave was
born at Woerhout, near Leyden, in the year 1668.  This great
physician has given us the institutes of medicine. . . [1/2
column]  When health would permit, he regularly rode on
horseback; when his strength began to fail him he walked on
foot; and, upon his return home, music, of which he was
passionately fond, made the hours of relaxation glide
agreeably away, and enabled him to return to his labours
with redoubled alacrity. . .
