Acts 28:2-4

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

² For kindling a fire, they refreshed us all, because of the present rain, and of the cold.

³ And when Paul had gathered together a bundle of sticks, and had laid them on the fire, a viper coming out of the heat, fastened on his hand.

⁴ And when the barbarians saw the beast hanging on his hand, they said one to another: Undoubtedly this man is a murderer, who though he hath escaped the sea, yet vengeance doth not suffer him to live.
