Chapter X The Home and Loves of the Spider
Admirable construction of its web, 223
A glance at the retreat of the Agelena, 224
Still greater ingenuity is shown by the Mygale, 225
In the web lurks the weaver, always expectant, 225
A sensitive being, and subject to fancies of terror, 227
In his moments of love he is timorous and suspicious, 228
How he is affected by musical sounds, 229
