Hippocratic Oath
I
SWEAR by Apollo the physician, and Aesculapius, and Health, and
All-heal, and all the gods and goddesses, that, according to my ability
and judgment, I will keep this Oath and this stipulation- to reckon him
who taught me this Art equally dear to me as my parents, to share my
substance with him, and relieve his necessities if required;
to look upon his offspring in the same footing as my own
brothers, and to teach them this art, if they shall wish to learn it,
without fee or stipulation; and that by precept, lecture, and every
other mode of instruction, I will impart a knowledge of the Art to my
own sons, and those of my teachers, and to disciples bound by a
stipulation and oath according to the law of medicine, but to none
others. I will follow that
system of regimen which, according to my ability and judgment, I
consider for the benefit of my patients, and abstain from whatever is
deleterious and mischievous. I
will give no deadly medicine to any one if asked, nor suggest any such
counsel; and in like manner I will not give to a woman a pessary to
produce abortion. With purity and with holiness I will pass my life and
practice my Art. I will not
cut persons laboring under the stone, but will leave this to be done by
men who are practitioners of this work.
Into whatever houses I enter, I will go into them for the benefit
of the sick, and will abstain from every voluntary act of mischief and
corruption; and, further
from the seduction of females or males, of freemen and slaves. Whatever, in connection with my professional practice or not,
in connection with it, I see or hear, in the life of men, which ought
not to be spoken of abroad, I will not divulge, as reckoning that all
such should be kept secret. While
I continue to keep this Oath unviolated, may it be granted to me to
enjoy life and the practice of the art, respected by all men, in all
times! But should I
trespass and violate this Oath, may the reverse be my lot! |
