  MALADRERIE, s. f. (Police.) hôpital public de malades, & particulierement de lépreux :
  
  A sad, noizom place, wherein are laid Numbers of all diseas’d of all maladies ! Dire is the tossing, deep the groans ; despair Tends the sick, busy from couch to couch ; And over them, triumphant death his dart Shakes, but delays to strike, thó oft invok’d With vows, as theirs chief good, and final hope.
