It included five petticoats, a red silk, a blue silk and a black silk, another of India silk and worsted prunella and a fifth of linen and calico. Also, the lady left a black silk gown, a scarlet waistcoat, a sky-colored satin bodice, a pair of red paragon bodices, a worsted mantle, two hoods, a striped-stuff jacket, seven handkerchiefs, six aprons, three of fine and three of coarse Holland.

By boiling, even for a little time, their fine flavour is destroyed. A wine is also made of the flowers, which is given as an opiate. PRUNELLA vulgaris. SELFHEAL. The Leaves. It has an herbaceous roughish taste, and hence stands recommended in haemorrhages and alvine fluxes.

He seemed to take up the coquette's part for her; perhaps of the two, he was the more gratified by the curious glances directed at those little feet, shod with plum-colored prunella; at the dainty figure outlined by a low-cut bodice, filled in with an embroidered chemisette, which only partially concealed the girlish throat.

And, prompted by Bensiabel, Prunella answered: 'That is the black cock. A few minutes after the crowing was heard again, and the voice of the witch demanding 'Which one was that?
