Here we stop a little, and gather a quantity of the leaves of this vine. See, our Indians are already at work. It is the Wourali, the juice of which furnishes the principal ingredient in the poison with which they anoint the tips of their darts. 22. Hark at the horrid sounds which proceed from the forest close by! It is the death roar of a Jaguar, which an immense Boa Constrictor is in the act of crushing to a jelly. 52. Juan Fernandez. This is the Island where Robinson Crusoe lived so many years. 82. Observe that Macoushi Indian; he is blowing a dart through his blow-pipe ten feet fong [sic], at a Toucan two hundred feet above him.' A rare and beautifully produced game.
