astonishment. Le Brun also refers (Lavater, vol. ix. p. 299) to the
hands of an astonished man being opened.]

accused is made to take a mouthful of rice, and after a little time to
throw it out. If the morsel is quite dry, the party is believed to be
guilty,—his own evil conscience operating to paralyse the salivating
organs.”]
