There is not the same lump exactly, yet something a little like it.

Have not some people glands naturally enlarged ?--would to heaven he were one! So he does for himself the work of the plague, and when the Angel of Death thus courted does indeed and in truth come, he has only to finish that which has been so well begun; he passes his fiery hand over the brain of the victim, and lets him rave for a season, but all chance-wise, of people and things once dear, or of people and things indifferent.

Once more the poor fellow is back at his home in fair Provence, and sees the sundial that stood in his childhood's garden--sees his mother, and the long-since forgotten face of that little dear sister--( he sees her, he says, on a Sunday morning, for all the church bells are ringing); he looks up and down through the universe, and owns it well piled with bales upon bales of cotton, and cotton eternal--so much so that he feels--he knows--he swears he could make that winning hazard, if the billiard-table would not slant upwards, and if the cue were a cue worth playing with; but it is not--it's a cue that won't move--his own arm won't move--in short, there's the devil to pay in the brain of the poor Levantine; and perhaps, the next night but one he becomes the 'life and the soul' of some squalling jackal family, who fish him out by the foot from his shallow and sandy grave.".
