Excerpt from A System of Syphilis, Vol. 2 of 5
The very expression, venereal disease,' carries with it one of the most important advances made in connexion with syphilis during the last half-century. The term was used very loosely for many years, though the writers before 1786 had a tolerably clear idea that three separate diseases were included under the general heading of venereal disease: the lues venerea, which is now called syphilis; a condition associated with a chancre and buboes, known as soft sores; and gonorrhoea, which in their minds was con fused, as it is still by quacks and clap-curers, with any urethral discharge due to causes ranging from a pyonephrosis to a natural seminal emission.
