This lint I quietly place at the outlet of the hole leading to the nest on the ground, in a bank, or elsewhere. Nothing more is requisite. Every wasp that arrives at the hole, on its descent alights on the lint, and, after one or two gyrations, drops over the edge of the lint, into the hole, dead, or else dies upon the lint; not one escapes- When the nest...
Seite 215 - A man may cry Church ! Church ! at every word, With no more piety than other people — A daw's not reckoned a religious bird Because it keeps a-cawing from a steeple ; The Temple is a good, a holy place, But quacking only gives it an ill savor ; While saintly mountebanks the porch disgrace, And bring religion's self into...
Seite 26 - Well-purified honey has the quality of preserving, for a long time in a fresh state, anything that may be laid in it or mixed with it, and to prevent its corrupting in a far superior manner to sugar; thus many species of fruit may be preserved by being laid in honey, and by this means will obtain a pleasant taste and give to the stomach a healthy tone. One who has once tried it, will...
