A WOMAN at Anoernach, on the Rhine,
longed for her husband, murdered him, ate
what she could of him, and sailed the rest.
Tulpius mentions another longing lady, who
devoured fourteen hundred red herrings
during her "longing." Ludovicus Wives
relates the case ola woman who longed
for a bite in a young mans neck, and who
would have gone crazy had she not been
gratifed. Roderick a Casio tells us Of
another amiable female, who had set her
heart upon biting off a bit of a bakers
shoulder. The husband bribed the baker
at SO much a bite, but the poor fellow would
only s'stand treat" once.
