Note 67 — Second Part.
Reading edition
The author at any rate is more cautious than Sprengel, who (Th. Batemann), Prakt. Darstellung der Hautkrankheiten (Practical Exposition of Diseases of the Skin), Halle 1815., p. 427. Note, writes: “Hippocrates appears to mention it (Elephantiasis) under the name φοινικίη νόσος (Phoenician disease), which Galen (Explan. voc. Hipp.) distinctly and definitely explains as Elephantiasis.”
