</i></dd><dd>It's about an experiment in the sustentation of the [[subject]] in speech, by means of what was then called magnetism, a form of theorisation of [[hypnosis]] - someone <i>in articulo mortis is </i>hypnotised to see what will happen. A man at the end of his life is chosen, he only has some few breaths [[left]], and in every other way he's dying. It's been explained to him that if he wants to become one of humanity's heroes, he has only to [[signal]] to the hypnotiser. If this could be set up in the few hours preceding his last breath, one would find out. This is fine poetical [[imagination]], which ranges much further than our timid medical imaginations, although we all try hard along that road.<br>

</dd><dd>In fact, [[The Subject|the subject ]] passes from life into death, and remains for some months in a state of sufficient aggregation to be still in fair condition - a corpse on a bed, which, from time to time, speaks, saying <i>I am [[dead]].<br>
<br>
</i></dd><dd>This state of affairs is maintained, with the help of all kinds of tricks and digs in the ribs, until the passes contrary to those that put him to [[sleep]] are started in order to wake him up, when several screams from the poor wretch are heard - <i>For God's sake! - quick! - quick -put me to sleep - or, quick- waken me!-quick-<br>
