Abstract
THIS interesting vocabulary, which Mr. Mowat has transcribed and edited from a manuscript in the Bodleian Library, is offered by him as a contribution to the study of English plant-names. To explain why it has this and also other claims to attention, we must say a word about the class of literature to which it belongs.
