NOTES.
Conium maculatum.
Atropa belladonna.
Line 10.
"Gibbers and shrieks," &c.
The word Gibber has been also objected to; but besides that it appears to me very expressive, I have for its use the example of Shakspeare:
" the sheeted dead
Did squeal and gibber in the streets of Rome."
Hamlet.
Page 123. Line 2.
"The Wall-creeper that hunts the burnish'd fly."
