 but Dr. Watson, whole authority will not be |

This fpecies, which far excels the other in beauty, % 



is by no means fo frequent. ' I firft found it on a |

place mentioned by Wilson, in his SynopfsA

From the paucity of places in which this plant was | 40. 



laid to have been found wild, and the fufpicion | 



which refted on fome of thofe, I had entertained " 



doubts of its being a native of this country : 



thofe were entirely removed on my finding it tole- % 



rably plentiful in the lanes about Gigglefwick, and * 



in the road between Settle and Ingleton.

Scandix odoraia. Sweet Cicely. 



Cerefolium magnum five Myrrhis. Ger. emac. p. 

 1039. 



This plant is not mentioned by Mr. Ray in his 

 Synopfis ; and Mr. Hudson introduces it as a 

 doubtful native. The fituations in which I found 

 it clearly convinced me, it had a good title to be 

 confidered as a native of Great Britain ; and I 

 was confirmed in my opinion by the common 

 people, who find it wild in many places in the 

 greateft plenty, and call it by the name of Sweet- 

 cijs, an abbreviation of Cicely. They rub their 

 furniture with it, to give it a glofs. It is com- 

 mon under the ftone-walls about Svtile, at the 

 entrance into Kilnfay, and in Whit fell Gill, near 

 Afkrig. 



Pimpinella Sa-xifraga. Burnet Saxifrage.

I found thefe two fpecies plentifully in the North ; 

 but no where in greater plenty, or perfection, 

 than on Brigfear Mofs, near Kendal, where 

 they grow to twice or thrice the fize they ufually 

 acquire with us ; but in other refpe&s appeared to 

 me to afford no truly fpecific character. It is 

 very proabable, that the three fpecies enumerated 

 in Ray, in addition to the above, will be found 

 to be varieties only. 



Allium arenarium ? 'Sand Garlic.

Thefe two fpecies of Garlic being out of flower 

 when difcovered, I dare not be pofitive about 

 them. The firft grew fparingly, in a pafture at 

 the back of t.he ftables belonging to the Dun 

 Horfe, Ingleton, kept by Mr. Warmer, at whofe 

 houfe every traveller finds himfelf at home. The 

 latter grew alfo fparingly among rocks, in the 

 Girling "Trough, near Conijlone, Kilnfay.
