THIS species usually rises much higher than the Sabina; it is 
covered with brownish bark, and divides into many branches: the 
leaves are very numerous, long, narrow, pointed, of a deep green 
colour, and stand in ternaries: the flowers are male and female on 
different plants, and answer to the description of those which we 
have given of juniperus Sabina:* the berries continue two years 
upon the tree before they become perfectly ripe, when they are 
of a blackish colour, round, filled with a brownish pulp, and each 
contain three irregular hard seeds. It grows in several heathy parts 
of England, and flowers in May. 
2. Of the Sabina we ought to have remarked, that the essential oil and the 
watery extract, are kept in the shops, and that it is an ingredient in the pulv. 
e. myrrha compositus.
