| Material Notes | It was generally believed that if a sprig of Basil were left under a pot it would in time turn to a scorpion. Superstition went so far as to affirm that even smelling the plant might bring a scorpion into the brain. Every good Hindu goes to his rest with a Basil leaf on his breast. This is his passport to Paradise. Civet replacer. |
