To facilitate a recapitulation of the preceding details, which arederived from Prout, and often given in his own words, I place beforeyou the following table, also found in his work: — ALBUMINOUS URINE AND BILE. 575 TABLE .— Exhibiting a contrasted view of the relations between the principlesof the blood and of the principles of the bile and of the urine, formed either mediatelyor immediately from the blood. « I uj — o 02 O ,ol, XOa!iiHP,HW^w.
