It had that sense when first adopted into English, and into French, where it became colère (source of English choler [14]).It was revived as a term for a severe digestive disorder, involving vomiting, diarrhoea, etc, in the 17th century, and in the 19th century was applied (from the similarity of the symptoms) to the often fatal infectious disease caused by the bacterium Vibrio comma.=> gall, melancholy
