After awhile all the upper parts of the body, as far down as the navel, were frightfully swollen, pale and edematous rather than inflamed. A large number of small transparent blisters, filled with serum and looking like sudamina, developed and became confluent; on account of these the skin assumed a peculiar wrinkled appearance. There was no other remarkable disturbance either of circulation or respiration. The patient complained neither of headache nor of sensitiveness of the stomach and abdomen. The look of the patient was monstrous, the lids completely closed, forming transparent, here and there bluish swellings as large as hen’s eggs.
