A doctor told a young man
during a visit that he had
a damaged memory:
"Take this prescription,
it is an effective remedy,
it will cost you a peseta
and you will be in peace."....
.About three days later
the afflicted youth returned.
He said to the doctor, "It has gone badly,
the thing turned out the other way around:
why don't you heal me
of the disease first,
so that with memory I can
take the medicine on time later;
today I forgot to drink it."...
