O thou distinguished physician!... Praise be
to God that thou hast two powers: one to undertake
physical healing and the other spiritual healing. Matters
related to man's spirit have a great effect on his bodily
condition. For instance, thou shouldst impart gladness to
thy patient, give him comfort and joy, and bring him to
ecstasy and exultation. How often hath it occurred that
this hath caused early recovery. Therefore, treat thou the
sick with both powers.
