He then describes 13 similar cases and describes and compares the effects of several classes of Solanaceae and Belladonnae and suggests remedies for poisoning. A natural history, citing the observations of Galen and Pliny, includes a terminological discussion with Hebrew, Aramaic, Arabic, Ethiopic and Persian sources (all rendered in Hebrew type). With a fine occult frontispiece. WARING, 1677; HIRSCH II, p. 322. VD17 39: 144027F.
