WHITE BRYONY (_Bryonia dioica_).—Vine-like leaves wreathe round in the hedges, and the pale, whitish flowers give place to graceful clusters of red berries. GOOSEBERRY (_Ribes Grossularia_).—Lane towards Brambridge. SAXIFRAGEA ORPINE (_Sedum Telephium_).—Also called Midsummer May; grows in Otterbourne Park, and a large bunch on the Romsey Road. An old woman described having tried the augury, having laid the plants in pairs on Midsummer Eve, naming them after pairs of sweethearts. Those that twisted away from each other showed inconstancy! STONECROP (_S. anglicum_).—Otterbourne Hill. (_S. acre_).—Hursley. HOUSELEEK (_Sempervivum tectorum_).—Also called Sin-green, or some word so sounding. It is not permitted to blow upon the roof on which it grows, for fear of ill-luck, which is strange, as it has been Jupiter’s beard, Thor’s beard, and St. George’s beard, and in Germany is thought to preserve from thunder. SAXIFRAGE (_Saxifraga tridactylites_).—Hursley. GOLDEN S. (_Chrysosplenium oppositifolium_).—Wet places in Lincoln’s Copse. MARSH PENNYWORT (_Hydrocotyle vulgaris_).—Bogs at Cuckoo Bushes. WOOD SANICLE (_Sanicula vulgaris_).—In all the copses. UMBELLIFERA GOUTWEED (_Ægopodium Podagra_).—Handsome leaves, but a troublesome weed. PIGNUT (_Bunium flexuosum_).—The delicate, lace-like, umbellate flowers in all the woods. WATER DROPWORT (_Œnanthe fistulosa_).—Banks of Itchen. WATER HEMLOCK (_Œ. crocata_).—Itchen banks. WILD CARROT (_Daucus Carota_). BURNET SAXIFRAGE (_Pimpinella Sax Jraga_).—Hursley. COW PARSLEY (_Chærophyllum sylvestre_).—Boys may be seen bearing home bundles for their rabbits. SHEPHERD’S NEEDLE (_Scandix Pecten Veneis_).—In cornfields. HEDGE PARSLEY (_Torilis infesta_).—Hursley. HEMLOCK (_Conium maculatum_). IVY (_Hedera Helix_).—Everywhere. DOGWOOD (_Cornus sanguinea_).—The red and purple of the fading leaves mixed with the yellow of the maples make every hedge a study. MISTLETOE (_Viscum album_).—Grows on hawthorns in Hursley Park, and on apple-trees at Otterbourne. MOSCATEL (_Adoxa Moschatellina_).—This dainty little green-headed plant is one of the harbingers of spring. ELDER (_Sambucus nigra_).—In most hedges, though its honours are gone as the staple of elder-wine, and still better of elder-flower water, which village sages used to brew, and which was really an excellent remedy for weak eyes. GUELDER-ROSE (_Viburnum Opulus_).—Equally handsome whether white-garlanded cymes of blossoms or scarlet berries, waxen when partly ripe. WAYFARING-TREE (_V. Lantana_).—Not quite so common, but handsome, with white flowers and woolly leaves. HONEYSUCKLE (_Lonicera Periclymenum_).—To be seen in full glory waving on the top of a holly-tree, and when the stem has become amalgamated with a bough, circling it like the staff of Esculapius, it is precious to boys. (_L. Caprifolium_).—Noted as once found, but not lately. MADDER TRIBE MADDER (_Rubia peregrina_).—Tiny flowers—Otterbourne Hill.
