FOLK-LORE WITCH-HAZEL. 215 



Moses of Angelo has budding horns upon his head. 

 In " The Last Judgment," the tail of the devil is 

 barbed at the end, like that of the mythological 

 dragon. In Scandinavia, the "evil one" carries a 

 caduceus made of hazelwood, and the implement is 

 bifurcate. Witch-hazel is a product of northern or 

 cold climates, hence it is so often mentioned in the 

 folk-lore of Norsemen.
