19. In dry cholera the belly is distended with wind, there is rumbling in the bowels, pain in the sides and loins, no dejections, but, on the contrary, the bowels are constipated. In such a case you should guard against vomiting, but endeavor to get the bowels opened. As quickly as possible give a clyster of hot water with plenty of oil in it, and having rubbed the patient freely with unguents;put him into hot water, laying him down in the basin, and pouring the hot water upon him by degrees; and if, when heated in the bath, the bowels be moved, he will be freed from the complaint. To a person in such a complaint it will do good if he sleep, and drink a thin, old, and strong wine; and you should give him oil, so that he may settle, and have his bowels moved, when he will be relieved. He must abstain from all other kinds of food; but when the pain remits, give him asses milk to drink until he is purged. But if the bowels are loose, with bilious discharges, tormina, vomitings, a feeling of suffocation, and gnawing pains, it is best to enjoin repose, and to drink hydromel, and avoid vomiting.

十大弟子传（佛教传记经典系列）
在佛陀的十大比丘弟子中，像舍利弗、目犍连，本是外道的学者或领袖；迦旃延、大迦叶，也是婆罗门的权威和长老，但他们一皈依佛陀，就唯有信仰、尊敬，从没有对佛陀有过批评。对佛陀没有建立信心的人，可以心平气和地踏着这些先贤的足迹，在佛陀的法海中来完成自己的修学。
