"One day, however, by merely touching my face with one of the branches, pain was instantaneously caused: it increased as usual after a few seconds, and remaining sharp for some minutes, was perceptible for half an hour afterwards. The sensation was as bad as that from a nettle, but more like that cause by the Physalia or Portuguese man-of-war."
