 Smith, and therefore well called "dwarf." 

 " Much used in medicine," (All). Penny 

 royal is only puliole royale. Plea bane

Mentha pulegium is called, Hb. xciv. a 

 male and female plant, but this has no 

 reference to the sexual system of Linno, 

 ■which make it didynamous not dioecous. 

 Some notion of strength influenced Theo- 

 frastos and Dioskorides in giving these 

 names. The drawing in MS. V. is like 

 the herb intended. The flowers are some- 

 times white. 



D])oj-le seems in the German glos- 

 saries to be Origanum.

Some interesting information on ale 

 and beer is collected by that learned and 

 accurate antiquary, Mr. Albert Way, in 

 the Prompt. Parv. p. 245. The frequent 

 mention of Wort (asLxxxvi), that is,the 

 warm malt infusion in the mash tub, 

 prepared for fermentation, shows plainly 

 enough that the Saxons brewed for them- 

 selves. The Alevat (I. Ixvii.) is the vessel 

 in which the ale was left to ferment. 

 Double brewed ale (I. xlvii. 3.) was 

 brewed on ale, instead of on water, and 

 gave them then a very Strong ale (III. 

 xii. p. 314, twice). Even without hops 

 such ale would keep till it became Old 

 ale (n. Ixv. 1, p. 292, line 12). Keeping 

 and careful treatment would secure its 

 being Clear (L Ixiii,; H. Ixv. 2, etc.). 

 Sweet ale is opposed to the clear (II. 

 Ixv. 2), and so was thick. j7ilipc ealu, 

 foreign ale, is often mentioned (I. Ixx., 

 etc.). Ale is much more frequently 

 named than beer ; strong beer is opposed 

 to strong ale (IH. xii.). Hopping diinks 

 is mentioned, Hb. Ixviii. ; further, see 

 IJymele.
