Affadil. There is some confusion in our note on this. The quota- 
tion from Turn. Lib. refers to Asphodelus ramosus, L. ; but in his 
Herbal (1551) Turner says, speaking of this plant, ‘ I could never se 
thys herb in England but ones, for the herbe that the people calleth 
}iQXQAffodil or daffodill is a kynd of narcissus ’ [misprinted ‘ Narassus ’ 
in the 1568 ed.]. Earlier authorities (Prompt. Parv., &c.) certainly 
intend the Asphodelus ; but it is evident from Turner’s remark that 
Narcissus Pseudo-narcissus was known as Affbdil in his time. See 
New English Diet, for further illustrative quotations.
