Hypertext Webster Gateway: "Haye"
From Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary (1913) (web1913)
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}.
