資料來源 : Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary (1913)

Asp \Asp\ ([.a]sp), n. [L. aspis, fr. Gr. 'aspi`s: cf. OF. aspe,
   F. aspic.] (Zo["o]l.)
   A small, hooded, poisonous serpent of Egypt and adjacent
   countries, whose bite is often fatal. It is the {Naja haje}.
   The name is also applied to other poisonous serpents, esp. to
   {Vipera aspis} of southern Europe. See {Haje}.

Haye \Ha"ye\, n. [Ar. hayya snake.] (Zo["o]l.)
   The Egyptian asp or cobra ({Naja haje}.) It is related to the
   cobra of India, and like the latter has the power of
   inflating its neck into a hood. Its bite is very venomous. It
   is supposed to be the snake by means of whose bite Cleopatra
   committed suicide, and hence is sometimes called {Cleopatra's
   snake} or {asp}. See {Asp}.
