- Mon cher je t'assure que je te trouve mauvaise mine ce matin. . . . . ce n'est pas en médecin que je te parle, c'est en ami. . . . . je veux absolument te soigner. . . mieux que je ne me soignerais moi-même. . . . . je vais t'appliquer trente sangsues à l'épigastre, et si demain matin je ne te trouve pas plus robuste, je t'en réappliquerai soixante! . . . . . (My dear friend you really don't look very well this morning. . . . . I am not speaking to you as a doctor, but as a friend. . . . . I must insist in treating you. . . better than I would treat myself. . . . .I am going to apply thirty leeches to your belly and if by tomorrow you have not improved, I'll apply another sixty! . . . . .) pl. 8 from the series Les Amis (The Friends) Artist: Honoré Daumier (French, 1808–1879)
