. Of the Honey-Dew. —1ag 
And it is the opinion of many authors, that there is 
“no material or fubftantial difference between the honey- 
| dew, i) the ancient manna of the J/raelites in the wil- 
dernefs, | 
The Manna fell on the ground like hoary froft, was 
gathered early before the fun waxed hot, and tafted like 
wafers made with | honey, which fhews fome fimilitude 
and agreement betwixt them, 
Honey was the fugar of the ancients, and the Romans 
uled it in their feafts.* : ,
