"I have, from my childhood, in conformity to the precepts of a mother,
void of all imaginary fear, been in constant habits of taking Toads in my
hand, holding them there some time, and applying them to my face or nose,
as it may happen. My motive for doing this very frequently, is to inculcate
the opinion I have held since I was taught by my mother, that the Toad is
actually a harmless animal, and to whose manner of life man is certainly
under some obligation, as his food is chiefly those insects which devour his
crops, and annoy him in various ways. To treat such an animal with cruelty,
and to regard it with disgust, I have always considered as a vulgar error...
