 Small-leaved Bramble. Fl. Aug. Sept. Clt. 1818. Sh. 2 large, purple or red, sweet-scented. Linnaeus has accurately 



figured this species of Bramble in his Fl. Lapponica, out of gra- 

 titude, as he expresses himself, for the benefit he reaped from it 

 in his Lapland journey ; it having so frequently recruited his 

 spirits when almost sinking with hunger and fatigue, by the 

 vinous nectar of its berries. He informs us that the principal 

 people in Norland make a syrup, a jelly, and a wine from these 

 berries, which they partly consume themselves, and partly send 



to 3 feet.
