Mikulicz's disease is basically a benign and non-cancerous swelling of the lacrimal gland (located in the upper, outward corner of your eye). It may be caused by tuberculosis, leukemia, lymphosarcoma, poisoning, sarcoidosis, syphilis, or gout. Onset may occur in conjunction with respiratory tract infection, oral infection, or tooth extraction.

Hildy's not only a kook but an over-dramatic one at that.

Re your #27 -

It seems that England was swept by two plagues during Shakesperes' lifetime.

A couple of his theaters had to be shut down to minimize the exposure between people in the audience - could that condition have been a lingering symptom of a non lethal bout of the plague?

Does anyone have a picture of the "Death Mask"?
