90 NOTES. 



P. 11, 1. I. Apiago, beo wyrt. The gloss seems 

 merely a translation of apis, as part of Apiago. Cf 

 p. I. 



1. 8. Lcibrv.sca, Avdngerd. 'Labrusca, vitis agrestis.' 

 Glos. Amplon. 



P. 12, 1. I. For hran we must read hvun. The 

 Durham Glossary has ' Vaccinium, Brun wyrt.' 



1. 8. Astida regia, wuderofe. This WoodruflF is baf- 

 fling. Some tantalizing disappointments await the 

 enquirer. One of the things that seemed to me most 

 certain before I entered into this enquiry, was that 

 Astula regia, wudurofe, must be Aspe/'ula odorata,

 moschatellina, for no other connection, but its musky 

 smell (Grassmann), The Brev. Bart, has this : 

 ' Herba muscata .i. hastula regia, Woderoue ; ' which 

 seems to point to Asperula odorata. 



P. 13, 1. I. Cinoglossa. Confusion for Arniglossa, 

 p. I and 48. 



P. 14, 1. I. Gerobotana, vel verbena, i.e. Hiero- 

 botana. Pliny xxv. 9 : * Nulla tamen Eomanae nobili- 

 tatis plus habet quam Hierabotane, aliqui Peristereon, 

 nostri verbenacam vocaut.' Cf, p. 5 for Peristereon. 



1. 20. Scirpus, se-risc. This I suppose means Water- 

 rush. In Glos. Amplon, ' Papirum eorisc' 



1. 22. Ulva, grsede. In Baxter's British Flowering 

 Plants the Lemna or Duckweed is called Greeds. 



P. 15, 1. 2. Britiannica, cusloppe. Perhaps for Be-
