Re: Assist: Latin Translation?

[Dee Longenbaugh <deelong@ALASKA.COM>]

My Latin is very, very rusty, but I would place this in a medical
context. Something along the lines of "The positions of the smallest
tide (surge?) of the flow and re-flow of blood ("tumin" unknown) if
"aliss" is actually "alia" , then "from many a splendid example of a
feverish seizure, occurring every third day".
Dee,
wobbly in Latin today
