A splendid melodrama from 1872.
Lucilla is blind. She loves Oscar and has frissons every time he is near. What will happen when she regains her sight and discovers Oscar’s secret? Will Oscar’s evil twin get to marry the girl? (--even though she doesn’t have frissons near him.)
The side-effects of the silver nitrate treatment are as Collins describes. However, he tactfully does not mention that the same side-effect (Argyria) was also a feature of contemporary gonorrhea remedies.
