Herb when bruised somewhat aromatic ; but the seech, according 

 to Jacquin, have scarcely any flavour. Scopoli says they stain 

 the fingers, when rubbed, with a brownish red. Stein 2 or 3 

 feet high, striated ; round and hairy in the lower part ; smooth 

 upwards ; slightly tumid and angular below eacli joint. Leaves 

 on narrow-winged footstalks, large, twice ternate ; leaflets 

 stalked, ovate, or elliptic-oblong, acute, copiously, sharply, and 

 rather finely serrated, with an occasional notch on one side at 

 the base ; their length U or 2 inches ; both sides nearly smooth ; 

 the serratures minutely fringed. Umbels of many smooth, slen- 

 der, general and partial, rays. Bracteas lanceolate, pointed, 

 reflexed, a few general occasionally, as well as several partial 

 ones. Fl. numerous, white ; the external ones fertile, slightly 

 irregular. Fruit linear, crowned with the long, slender, spread- 

 ing styles, whose tumid bases are rather depressed than globular j 

 the stigmas obtuse. Seeds convex, each represented by Jacquin 

 with 3, not very, prominent ribs. I have not seen tliem in per- 

 fection.
