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

 1 to 24- 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. PodshiW an inch long; their valves internally downy, 

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

Common under hedges and in shady lanes. 



Annual. May. 



Whole herb smooth, of a decj) shininggrcen, exhaling when bruised 

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

 flavour of its tri!)e, condensed or augmented, we will not say 

 improved. Yet the country people eat the young leaves with 

 bread and butter. The seeds arc said to be stronger than any 

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