PREFACE TO ENGLISH EDITION. 
Mr. E. HK. Austen, of the British Museum, has been 
good enough to undertake the translation of my book on 
“Venoms.” For the presentation of my work to the 
scientific public in an English dress I could not have hoped 
to find a more faithful interpreter. To him I express my 
liveliest gratitude for the trouble that he has so kindly 
taken, and I thank Messrs. John Bale, Sons and Danielsson 
for the care they have bestowed upon the preparation of 
this edition.
