Common symptoms
A very strange effect upon the cerebrum, as if my forehead was expanded and my ideas were floating outside of the brain (from the perfume). A very strange feeling of pleasant and easy comfort, and as if I scarcely touched the earth with my feet, and had to gather my ideas from afar, as it they were floating in the clouds (from the perfume). Slight vertigo (from the perfume). Found myself involved in a most beautiful atmosphere, bright and calm as the sunlight at noon (from the perfume). I felt a sensible confusion of ideas across the cerebrum, with drawing nervous irritation back to the cerebellum, and a spinal irritation or depletion of nervous circulation in the medulla oblongata, during the process of handling and cutting them. вuchner’s Toxicologie, 1827, states that the odor of the flowers readily causes spasms. In Froriep’s Notiz, iii, it is said that the juice, put into the eye, causes amaurosis.
