Dentistry (Toothache)
One said a tooth-drawer was a kind of unconscionable trade, because his trade was nothing else but to take away those things whereby every man gets his living.
Hazlitt.
For there was never yet philosopherThat could endure the toothache patiently.
Shakespeare.
Those cherries fairly do encloseOf orient pearl a double row,Which, when her lovely laughter shows,They look like rosebuds fill’d with snow.
Howe.
My curse upon thy venom’d stang,That shoots my tortured gums alang;And through my lugs gies monie a twang,Wi’ gnawing vengeance,Tearing my nerves wi’ bitter pang,Like racking engines!
Burns.
