light,  but  I  have  known  them  to  be  contracted  during  the  fit,  and  to  dilate
afterward.  In  severe  convulsions,  the  interference  with  respiration  is  verj
marked,  and  the  tongue  may  be  bitten.  Immediately  after  the  fit,  the  kne<
ierk  may  not  be  obtained.  The  patient  may  sleep  for  a  time  after  the  attack
as  after  an  epileptic  fit,  or  may  pass  into  a  state  of  coma,  or  may  be  merely

drowsy.
The  treatment  of  ursemic  convulsions  is  that  of  the  blood  state.
