Excerpt from The Medical Times and Gazette, Vol. 2: A Journal of Medical Science, Literature, Criticism, and News; For 1882
In my endeavour to refute these monstrous charges against the greatest ornament of our College, and one of the greatest benefactors of the human race, I shall make no attempt to emulate the quite inimitable ood taste and style of the Genoese Professor; but I shall endeavour, and I trust successfully, to show that, however diligent ma have been Harvey's study of Cesalpino's writings, he coul never have obtained from them that which is not to be found therein viz., a knowledge of the circulation of the blood; and that those who pretend to find in these writings the true doctrine of the circulation, endeavour to establish their position by giving to some chance expressions a meaning which the context shows could never have been in the mind of their author; while interpreting Cesal ino's vague and contra dictory statements by the light of rvey's researches, they ungratefully turn upon the real discoverer and accuse him of conscious plagiarism. This surely is very like an attempt to pierce the breast of an eagle with an arrow feathered by a p ume plucked from his own wing.
