 Cryptopia, like Morphia, has two distinct effects, a hypnotic, and an excitant of a most remarkable and exceptional kind, dependent partly upon an illusion of vision, and partly upon a tendency to convulsive action (Harley). Further acquaintance with сryptopia will perhaps more positively indicate that, as happens with Morphia, individuals are affected in opposite ways by it, some being influenced by its excitant action, while others are as exclusively affected by its hypnotic effects (Harley).

 Hypnosis. Had experienced a little drowsiness, passing into a doze for a few minutes at a time, and felt very calm and comfortable (after two hours and forty minutes). Sleepiness came on in two minutes, and soon increased, with yawning, so that in ten minutes he could hardly keep his eyes open; continued very sleepy, and looked very head (after three-quarters of an hour); continued very sleepy, and dozed most of the time (after one hour and a half); had dozed and slept, and still continued heavy and drowsy, but the effect was decreasing (after two hours and a quarter). Somnolency came on soon after the injection and continued, but had not yet amounted to sleep (after one hour); dozed continuously during the last hour without dreaming, and still felt very sleepy and uncomfortable (after two hours); continued very drowsy; retired to bed and slept soundly all night, and was, as usual after his opiates, sleepy throughout the next day. Had dozed off twice (after one hour and a quarter); had continued sleepy, and slept lightly for ten minutes (after two hours).
 Somnolency was the only effect, and this without any appearance of heaviness. He now walked home, and had half an hour’s pleasant dreamless sleep after arriving there. вeing bedtime, he soon retired to rest, and slept well without dreaming (after two hours).
