Is it because they have to do with sleep that they are called Blind 

 Eyes or because they are dazzling ?" 



20. I think, certainly, from the dazzling, which some- 

 times with the poppy, scarlet geranium, and nasturtium, 

 is more distinctly oppressive to the eye than a real excess 

 of light. 



I will certainly not include among my rescued Dracon- 

 idse, the parasitic Lathrsea and Orobanche ; and cannot 

 yet make certain of any minor classification among those 

 which I retain, but, uniting Bartsia with Euphrasia, I 

 shall have, in the main, the three divisions Digitalis, Lin- 

 aria, Euphrasia, and probably separate the moneyworts 

 as links with Yeronica, and Ehinanthus as links with 

 Lathraea. 



And as I shall certainly be unable this summer, under 

 the pressure of resumed work at Oxford, to spend time 

 in any new botanical investigations, I will rather try to 

 fulfil the promise given in the last number, to collect 

 what little I have been able hitherto to describe or ascer- 

 tain, respecting the higher modes of tree structure.
