    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Each scene is subtitled starting top with &#039;sudden breaking up of a consultation&#039; and ending bottom right with &#039;Drama. The miller &amp; his men&#039;. There is numerous lettering in the main central scene including top left: &#039;I say the man is in the last stage of consumption thro&#039; a too frequent supply of Morrison&#039;s Pills instead of Leakes sillybrated pills, which would have saved his life&#039;. In response another salesman replies: &#039;It&#039;s false fellow the &#039;vegetables&#039; rallied him but taking a box of your rubbish afterwards threw him back&#039;. Another vendor exclaims: &#039;You have completely ruin&#039;d the patient with your vile sovereign remedies in short you&#039;ve kill&#039;d him - then he can&#039;t swallow any more of your patent quack medicines.- You have totally deprived him of his sense of hearing - then he won&#039;t hear your gammon in the shape of advice - you have destoryed his olfactory nerves - then he wont be able to smell your horrid physic - you have glinded him with your deadly narcotics - then he can&#039;t see any more of your imposing long bills - you have deprived him of his speech - then he can&#039;t call you a humbug - in short Dr Long you have destroyed all his organs of sense - then you can no longer play upon his credibility&#039;. Other doctors mentioned in the lettering include &#039;Dr Jardan and his universal balm&#039; and &#039;Dr Solomons&#039; (Dr Samuel Solomon, inventor of the Balm of Gilead).]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Lettering continues: &quot;Sur leurs santés un bourgeois et sa femme, Interrogeoient l&#039;operateur Barri, Lequel leur dit: pour vous guerir, Madame, Baume plus seur n&#039;est que vôtre mari, Puis se tournant vers l&#039;epoux amaigri, Pour vous, dit il, femme vous est mortelle. Las! dit alors l&#039;epoux a sa femelle, Puis qu&#039;autrement ne pouvons nous guerir, Que faire donc? Je n&#039;en sçais rien dit elle, mais par Saint Jean, je ne veux point mourir. Rousseau epig.&quot;<br />
&quot;Opérateur&quot; was defined by F.-S. Régnier-Desmarais (1632-1713) as follows: &quot;Qui fait certaines opérations de chirurgie. Opérateur oculiste. Opérateur pour les dents. Opérateur pour la pierre. Fameux opérateur. Il se prend plus particulièrement pour un charlatan, qui debite ses remèdes, &amp; qui vend ses drogues en place publique&quot; (Nouveau dictionnaire de l&#039;Académie Françoise, Paris 1718, vol. 2 p. 168). Pierre Richelet (1626-1698) defined it as follows: &quot;Opérateur (Empyricus). Sorte de médecin chimique, qui ordinairement vend, ou fait vendre du baume &amp; d&#039;autres sortes de drogues sur un théatre dans les places publiques des villes (Un bon Opérateur)&quot; (Dictionnaire de la langue françoise, ancienne et moderne, Lyon 1759, vol. 2, p. 757).
