 Babingtoti s descriptions, not being at all sure 

 of the flants. By the Label, or, as he terms it, 

 the terminal division of the Lip, being as long 

 as the sepals, we must understand that it 

 extends as far ; for the part, considered in

 L imagine, the two colli, or hunches, at the 

 base of the Label, are intended.
