29 P. PALU'STRIS (Lin. spec. 845.) upper lip of corolla fur- 

 nished with a tooth on each side below the middle ; galea

 36. f. 3. Branches spreading. Leaves bipinnate or pinnate, 

 with pinriatifid segments. Spikes loose. Corolla purple, vary- 

 ing to white ; lower lip fringed. In marshes and wet meadows 

 this is rather common, particularly in the North ; it is said to 

 be disagreeable to cattle, and thought by some to be destructive 

 to sheep.
