This agreement being made, the Physician, time after time, applied his salve to her eyes, and on every visit took something away, stealing all her property little by little. And when he had got all she had, he healed her and demanded the promised payment. The Old Woman, when she recovered her sight and saw none of her goods in her house, would give him nothing. The Physician insisted on his claim, and. as she still refused, summoned her before the Judge. The Old Woman, standing up in the Court, argued: This man here speaks the truth in what he says; for I did promise to give him a sum of money if I should recover my sight: but if I continued blind, I was to give him nothing. Now he declares that I am healed. I on the contrary affirm that I am still blind; for when I lost the use of my eyes, I saw in my house various chattels and valuable goods: but now, though he swears I am cured of my blindness, I am not able to see a single thing in it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1569</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I knock unbidden once at every gate-- If sleeping, wake--if feasting, rise before  I turn away--it is the hour ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45077]]></link><description><![CDATA[I knock unbidden once at every gate-- If sleeping, wake--if feasting, rise before  I turn away--it is the hour of fate,   And they who follow me reach every state    Mortals desire, and conquer every foe     Save death, but those who doubt of hesitate,      Condemned to failure, penury and woe,       Seek me in vain and uselessly implore,        I answer not, and I return no more.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45077</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Taft's encouragement of McKenna's resignation illustrates how effective procedural pressure exerted by a chief justice can be.
