midnight
You suffer , and force yourself to seem gay , and hide your danger from me , in place of turning to my physicians and demanding their counsel and aid . '' `` Frederick the Wise once said to me , ` Physicians are but quacks and charlatans , and a man gives himself up to a tedious suicide who swallows their prescriptions . ' '' `` No , it was not ` Frederick the Wise , ' but ` Frederick the Fool , ' who uttered that folly . When the sun is shining , Frederick has no fear of ghosts ; but at the turn of midnight , he will breathe a silent ` Father in heaven , ' to be protected from them . We have no use for confidence in physicians when we are healthy ; when we are ill we need them , and then we begin to hold them in consideration . You are ill , your breast suffers . I entreat you , Jordan , to call upon my physician , and to follow his advice promptly and systematically .
