"Dean Rust observed his urine to smell like violets, though he had eat nothing that might give it that scent. Sir Amos Meredith who had been his bedfellow, said, that in the night he had observed this like agreeableness of smell in Mr. Greatarick's body, at some hours."
-Henry Stubbe, The Miraculous Conformist (1666)
