Samuel Johnson's Dictionary
Hectical, Hectickadjective
Etymology: hectique, French, from ἕξις.
This word is joined only to that kind of fever which is slow and continual, and ending in a consumption, is the contrary to those fevers which arise from a plethora, or too great fulness from obstruction, because it is attended with too lax a state of the excretory passages, and generally those of the skin; whereby so much runs off as leaves not resistance enough in the contractile vessels to keep them sufficiently distended, so that they vibrate oftener, agitate the fluids the more, and keep them thin and hot. John Quincy.
A hectick fever hath got hold
Of the whole substance, not to be controul’d. John Donne.No hectick student scars the gentle maid. Taylor.
Hecticknoun
An hectick fever.
Like the hectick in my blood he rages,
And thou must cure me. William Shakespeare, Hamlet.
