I have a cute little bunny, named Morty. I adopted Morty when he was two months old.

My bunny has four little cute feet and he likes to jump to my bed. His ears are long and usually his ears like to cover his chubby cheeks. His fur is brown and unlike other rabbits, Morty’s favorite food is bananas. Whenever I eat a banana, he will run and jump to me, so he can take a bite. Now, Morty is three months old and he can jump even higher than the first day I took him home.

(Description)
Scorpions are common in hot countries: they are very bold and watchful: when anything approaches, they erect their tails, and stand ready to inflict the dire sting.
In some parts of Italy and France, they are among the greatest pests that plague mankind: they are very numerous, and are most common in old houses, in dry or decayed walls, and among furniture, insomuch that it is attended with, much danger to remove the same: their sting is generally a very deadly poison, though not in all cases, owing to a difference of malignity of different animals, or some other cause.
In the time of the children of Israel, scorpions were a plague in Egypt and Canaan, as appears by the sacred writings.
