… Carry on, my wayward son
There'll be peace when you are done
Lay your weary head to rest
Don't you cry no more
… Once I rose above the noise and confusion
Just to get a glimpse beyond this illusion
I was soaring ever higher
But I flew too high
Though my eyes could see, I still was a blind man
Though my mind could think, I still was a mad man
I hear the voices when I'm dreaming
I can hear them say
… Carry on, my wayward son
There'll be peace when you are done
Lay your weary head to rest
Don't you cry no more
… Masquerading as a man with a reason
My charade is the event of the season
And if I claim to be a wise man, well
It surely means that I don't know
On a stormy sea of moving emotion
Tossed about, I'm like a ship on the ocean
I set a course for winds of fortune
But I hear the voices say
… Carry on my wayward son
There'll be peace when you are done
Lay your weary head to rest
Don't you cry no more, no
… Carry on, you will always remember
Carry on, nothing equals the splendor
Now your life's no longer empty
Surely heaven waits for you
… Carry on, my wayward son
There'll be peace when you are done
Lay your weary head to rest
Don't you cry, don't you cry no more
… No more

Plague doctors practiced bloodletting and other remedies such as putting frogs or leeches on the buboes to "rebalance the humors." A plague doctor's principal task, besides treating people with the plague, was to compile public records of plague deaths, so why?

Blood, buboes, misery, traveling, herbs, cool mask, cane, and respect. What's there not to love?

The plague doctors' duties were far more actuarial than medical. Many doctors still got sick by breathing through the nostril holes in their masks. The plague doctor's uniform was pretty scary for people who saw it in person. It meant they were very sick. Not that cool until you know the full back story of the plague doctors

Nostradamus profession was a plague doctor. He was very effective in treating plague. He would have villages burn corpses, wash the streets, take a public bath, and had a medicine with rose hips as the primary ingredient.

Not all are bad, I agree. then again, Plague doctors had a mixed reputation, with some citizens seeing their presence as a warning to leave the area. Some plague doctors were said to charge patients and their families additional fees for special treatments or false cures. In many cases these "doctors" were not experienced physicians or surgeons; instead, being volunteers, second-rate doctors, or young doctors just starting a career. In one case, a plague doctor was a fruit salesman before his employment as a physician. Plague doctors rarely cured patients, instead serving to record death tolls and the number of infected people for demographic purposes.
