The fame I faw at BruJJels^ where a Soldier had 
catch’d a large Viper big with young. The Houfe, where 
I and fomeof my Companions lodged, was near theFilh- • 
Market, where my Landlord had a Sow, and five fmall 
Pigs of nine or ten Days old. We got one of the Pigs, 
which we caus’d to be bit by the Viper in the Tail, 
and in four Minutes time chopp’d off the Tall, the Pig 
appearing to be lick and dizzy, and the remaining part 
of the Tail being fwell’d , but I believe the bleeding , 
fav’d it, for the next Morning it was well again. The • 
fame happen’d to another Pig, which we had got bk im 
the fore Foot, and flaying feven Minutes after the Bite, 
cut off his Leg about two Inches above the Bite. Af- - 
ter thefe two, we took the other three, and had them 
bit in feveral Places, whereof two died that Night, 
and the third recover’d, we having given it, about* 
five or fix Minutes afterwards, ten Grains of Emetic 
Tartar. 
This I try’d afterwards upon Dogs bit by Vipers, 
and I found that they all recover’d ‘upon the Emetic-.. 
Tartar...
