Contains dialogue: 'Patient. "Then, according to you, doctor, in order to live at all, I must give up all that makes life worth living?" Doctor. "I'm afraid so - at least for a few years." Patient. "Perhaps you'd recommend me to marry?" Doctor (a confirmed bachelor) "Oh no! Come, my dear fellow, it's not quite so bad as all that, you know!"'
