I have thus briefly, and I fear inefficiently, endeavoured to bring 

 before the members of the Carlisle Scientific Society and Field 

 Naturalists' Club, a compendium of the botanical productions of 

 "Cauda's sweet vale," in the hope that it may lead to further 

 investigations in the same direction. The labour has been to me 

 a ftiost congenial task, and has sufficed to call up pleasant 

 memories of many a ramble by woodland copse and mountain 

 glen in days long by past.
