1. A cough.
   • 1902, Robert M. Tooker, “The Homœopathic Treatment of Whooping Cough”, in The North American Journal of Homeopathy, volume 50, page 48:

     In cachectic subjects, or in a strumous child the victim is never safe when the diathesis is reinforced by any contagion which further undermines a constitution built on sand. Even in such cases the force of the tussis attack can be rendered less forceful by judicious treatment and proper care.

     Except of my coffin, / For what can I else with this horrible tussis?
