| Publisher Description: THE earth brings forth, as if by suppuration, great evil from the diminutive scorpion. The poisons are as many as are the kinds of it, the disasters as many as are also the species of it, the pains as many as are also the colours of it. Nicander writes an the subject of scorpions, and depicts them. And yet to smite with the tail--which tail will be whatever is prolonged from the hindmost part of the body, and scourges--is the one movement which they all use when making an assault. |
