unhufeland to take away her skirt and to receive only two bed sheets. In this manner she gets a cold, and this happens by the doctor's orders. Only a bad doctor who is no Hufeland can order such things. I was the physician and therefore she says: "You have also two sides doctor—perhaps you do not belong to Hufeland, doctor." The adjective "unhufeland" is most noteworthy, it has the meaning of "not in accordance with Hufeland." She employs the word "Hufeland" like a technical term, just as the surgeons say "We will do a Bier here" (sc. Bier's stasis) or a "Bassini" (sc. Bassini's operation), or, as the psychiatrists would say, "this is a Ganser" or "this symptom gives the impression of a Ganser" (sc. Ganser's symptom-complex). In the word "unhufeland," therefore, only the prefixed "un" is the pathological formation. The many complaints of the patient about unjust cruel treatment will justify the supposition that she wishes a "Hufeland" for her doctor. This thought may also be expressed quite well by the fact that she designates herself as "Hufeland": such a metonymy as we have seen is not at all unexpected. The idea of bad, unhygienic and dangerous treatment always associates with it "payment" which patient apparently conceives as a sort of indemnity. She does not make herself sick as seven eighths of the others do, but she is made "violently" sick. Probably for this reason a million should be paid to her. With this we approach the sense of her stereotype, "I affirm a million Hufeland to the left on the last fragment of earth," etc. The meaning of "left" in this stereotype is not quite clear to me. As in "oleum" we meet again the complex of death-expectation. The "Makrobiotik" is therefore a further nuance in the idea of Hufeland. The stereotype "I affirm a million Hufeland to the left on the last fragment of earth on the hill above" must therefore be a peculiar metaphoric paralogic condensation ("ellipse") for the sentence: For the bad treatment of the physicians which I have to endure here and with which I am tortured to death, I claim a high indemnity.

Gessler (stereotype: "I suffer under Gessler"): Gessler's head is set up here below, I saw it in the dream—Gessler is the greatest tyrant—I suffer under Gessler, William Tell is therefore the greatest tragedy in the world, on account of such personalities as Gessler—I shall tell you what he exacted of the people—he
