under the freeftone-quarry on the weft fide of Hall-barns, near 

 imonburn. It is alfo in the wood by the flate-quarry at Blake-law, 

 oppoiite to Loiv Moralee, near Wark, in Tynedale. The root is 

 fibrous, creeping, and divaricated, fending forth new plants at 

 diftances. The flalk is naked for about three or four inches, of 

 a blackim-green, fmooth and glofly. The pinna is cordiform,
