“Nous adoptons la division suivante, en six classes, de tous les
poisons connus, et de toutes les manières possibles par lesquelles
les substances vénéneuses peuvent nuire au corps humain:
POISONS SEPTIQUES—Poisons STUPEFIANS, ou NARCOTIQUES—Poisons
NARCOTICO-ACRES—Poisons ACRES, ou RUBEFIANS—Poisons CORROSIFS, ou
ESCAROTIQUES—Poisons ASTRINGENS.”
Footnote 211:

combination of the symptoms of both classes may be produced.
