Root small, tapering. Stem erect, branched, angular, leafy, from 

 1 to 2^ feet high, rough with small, closely deflexed, mostly 

 simple bristles. Leaves of a dull green, sessile, except a few of 

 the lower ones, lanceolate, variable in breadth, as well as in the 

 number of their distant and shallow teeth, all clothed with very 

 minute, crowded, close, forked bristles, such as are found also, 

 still more minute, on the pods and their stalks. Fl. numerous, 

 small, yellow, with a whitish calyx. Pet. terminated by a shal- 

 low notch. Pods full an inch long ; Iheirvalves internally downy, 

 which is remarkable. Tlieir seeds are bitter, and have been used 

 for destroying intestinal worms in children ; being also one of

Jack by the hedge. Petiv. H. Brit. t. 45./ 1 . 



Common under hedges and in shady lanes. 



Annual. May. 



Whole herb smooth, of a deep shining green, exhaling when bruised 

 a strong and nauseous scent of garlick, which seems the natural 

 flavour of its tribe, condensed or augmented, we will not say 

 improved. Yet the country people eat the young leaves with 

 bread and butter. The seeds are said to be stronger tlian any 

 other part. The stem is about a foot high, somewhat branched.
