Henry Sully was surgeon to Wiveliscombe Infirmiary and to the Duke of Cumberland. This work records a number of local rabies cases and repeats directions given earlier by Somerset doctors that the effects of rabies can be prevented if the saliva is wiped away and the bite thoroughly washed. Washing the wound with antiseptic is still the first treatment for rabies. The understanding of rabies did not progress until Louis Pasteur published 'Sur la Rage' in 1881. The article on Horse Provender is about Sully's system for feeding horse chaff via a chute from a loft above the stable. Taunton: Printed for the Author, by J. W. Marriott, 1828 hardcover

1878ref. 0361Paris, Alphonse Lemerre, sans date [circa 1900]. In-16 de 159 x 100 mm, (cviii) 286 pp. Demi-cuir tabac grainé, solide dos à 5 nerfs soulignés et surlignés dorés, fleurons, titre en deux pièces, doubles bandeaux dorés en coiffe et queue. L'intérieur de la reliure est signé J.-B. Garnier, la plus grande librairie française de Rio à l'époque. Dessin d'un homme qui creuse en page de titre avec la devise "FAC ET SPERA". Précédé d'un avant-propos et d'une préface. "Tous les hommes commencent à penser spontanément, et la plupart ne penseront jamais qu'ainsi, c'est-à-dire que les idées, les jugements, les raisonnements, se forment sans que l'esprit assiste à leur formation et en prenne conscience. Comme un pianiste frappe les touches, et sans avoir besoin de connaître le mécanisme intérieur de l'instrument, sans savoir comment se font les notes, de même l'homme, en pensant, détermine la production de l'idée en lui, sans apercevoir l'intime travail de l'intelligence. Mais il peut, tout comme le pianiste, regarder dans la machine..." (Préface) "Si mon verbe concis t'arrête ou te déroute, J'étendrai la doctrine et la déploierai toute ; Mon sein riche épandra le miel de mes discours En fleuve intarissable et si large en son cours Qu'en nos membres le froid de l'âge peut descendre Et de la vie en nous la gaine se briser, Sans que mon luth t'ait fait sur chaque chose entendre Les arguments sans nombre où tu pourrais puiser !" (Lucrère, De la nature des choses, tel que traduit dans ce livre)
