--Can you tell me, quoth _Phutatorius_, speaking to _Gastripheres_ who sat next to him----for one would not apply to a surgeon in so foolish an affair----can you tell me, _Gastripheres_, what is best to take out the fire? ----Ask _Eugenius_, said _Gastripheres_. ----That greatly depends, said _Eugenius_, pretending ignorance of the adventure, upon the nature of the part ----If it is a tender part, and a part which can conveniently be wrapt up ------It is both the one and the other, replied _Phutatorius_, laying his hand as he spoke, with an emphatical nod of his head, upon the part in question, and lifting up his right leg at the same time to ease and ventilate it. ------If that is the case, said _Eugenius_, I would advise you, _Phutatorius_, not to tamper with it by any means; but if you will send to the next printer, and trust your cure to such a simple thing as a soft sheet of paper just come off the press--you need do nothing more than twist it round. --The damp paper, quoth _Yorick_ (who sat next to his friend _Eugenius_) though I know it has a refreshing coolness in it--yet I presume is no more than the vehicle--and that the oil and lamp-black with which the paper is so strongly impregnated, does the business. --Right, said _Eugenius_, and is, of any outward application I would venture to recommend, the most anodyne and safe.

'Can you tell me,' quoth Phutatorius, '-what is best to take out the heat?'
'That greatly depends,' said Eugenius, pretending ignorance of the adventure, 'upon the nature of the part. If it is a tender part, which can easily be wrapped up-'
'It is,' replied Phutatorius, lifting up his right leg to ventilate it.
'In that case,' said Eugenius, 'I would advise you not to tamper with it; but send to the printer, and trust your cure to a soft sheet of paper just come off the press - simply twist it round.'
'Although the damp paper has a refreshing coolness,' quoth Yorick, 'yet I presume it is the oil and lamp-black with which the paper is impregnated, which does the business.'
'Right,' said Eugenius, 'and it is a remedy both anodyne and safe.'
