Actions of Liquor Potassoe

Diuretic - and renders the Stomach more placid
A violent poison and famous antacid,
And I seldom have had the good fortune to see a
Drug act so well in a bad gonorrhoea,
Tis an alternative too, and the crabbiest critic
Would scarce dare to blame such an antilithitic
And Garrod maintains that it's worth any ten
Other drugs in the world to all corpulent men.


Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
