I found this plant at the Angels, on one fide of the road that leads to the red 



fourteen inches, 



and about the height of twelve or 



hills: it was then in bloffom, 



but without any leaves. The flowers are of a flemy colour, oblong and fucculent.

The upright Satyrium, with large flowers. 



The flower' of this plant is pretty much like that of the foregoing; fpecie's; but 



the ftalk is furnifhed with oblong leaves about the bottom. It grows in the hills above 

 Mrs. Guys, in the road to the Decoy and St. Mary's.

The leaves of this fpecies (which is found only in the cooler parts of the moun- 

 tains) perfectly refemble thofe of a young Cocao-nut plant ; and generally run from 

 fifteen inches to two or three feet in length. The flower- ftalk grows cloie to thefej 

 but feparate, and rifes commonly to the height of two or three feet. The root is flefhy, 

 fomewhat tranfparent, and fixed in the ground by fome ftringy fibres: its tafte is 



bitterifh, and attended with a clamminefs that leaves a light prickly warmth behind it; 

 but this wears off foon, leaving the palate free from every fenfation but that of the 

 bitter. As the root dries, it acquires a great deal both of the colour and tafte of 

 rhubarb ; but it mould be diced, and kept a long time in the open air, or fun, to be 

 properly cured. It may be ufed, with great propriety, as a ftomachic ; and is generally 

 obferved to thicken the faliva. when chewed.
