Dicycloverine (C19H35NO2) also known as dicyclomine is a drug used to cure gastrointestinal tract spasms. The conversion of the free-base form (C19H35NO2) of dicycloverine to the protonated hydrochloride form (C19H36ClNO2) using one equivalent of HCl is shown below (Note: Not all carbons and hydrogens are shown. Each "corner" represent a carbon bonded to the correct number of hydrogens in order to make a total of four bonds):

Based on the given structure, determine which form of dicycloverine is more soluble in water.
