What shall I say to thy internal spirit,—thy opium,—thy salt-petre,——thy greasy unctions,—thy daily purges,—thy nightly clysters, and succedaneums?

Are any medicines to be given as succedanea to the specific remedy for the purpose of rendering its action more sure or prompt?

Passiflora is in its place as a succedaneum for Morphia or other sedatives.

While 'succedaneum', meaning something used as a substitute also no longer trips off the modern tongue.

Give us rather any succedaneum that will move us, will delight us.
