31. When the jaw is dislocated on both sides, the treatment is the same. The patients are less able to shut the mouth than in the former variety; and the jaw protrudes farther in this case, but is not distorted; the absence of distortion may be recognized by comparing the corresponding rows of the teeth in the upper and lower jaws. In such cases reduction should be performed as quickly as possible; the method of reduction has been described above. If not reduced, the patient's life will be in danger from continual fevers, coma attended with stupor (for these muscles, when disordered and stretched preternaturally, induce coma); and there is usually diarrhea attended with billous, unmixed, and scanty dejections; and the vomitings, if any, consist of pure bile, and the patients commonly die on the tenth day.

二刻拍案惊奇·贰
《二刻拍案惊奇》题材大多取自《太平广记》、《齐东野语》、《夷坚志》、《剪灯新话》、《剪灯余话》及其他典籍,经过作者凌濛初的再加工和再创作,融入了凌氏本人的思想个性,体现了凌氏本人的艺术构思和艺术风格。本书里的故事反映明代后期市民阶层的社会生活更为广阔,凡是人伦道德的各个主题,都或多或少地涉及到了。同时,明末内忧外患纷起,社会矛盾更加复杂尖锐,这一状况,《二刻拍案惊奇》表现得也比《初刻拍案惊奇》更为充分,诸如贫富悬殊造成的心理倾斜,官僚腐朽造成的社会动荡,封建婚姻制度激起的青年男女的反抗,新兴商人阶层对士农工商四民秩序的挑战,淫靡世风膨胀起的人欲对天理道学的反叛等等,勾勒出一幅晚明社会日薄西山的惨淡图画。
