These varieties are usually sown in gardens when it is not convenient to have them grow up sticks, being all of a dwarf kind. The Tall Marrow-fat. The Green Marrow-fat. The Imperial Egg Pea. The Rose, or Crown Pea. The Spanish Morotto. Knight's Marrow Pea. The Grey Rouncival. The Sickle Pea. This last variety has no skin in the pods. These are used as kidney beans, as also in the usual way.
Just below the cross, further to the south, was Scotland Yard, the site of the ancient Palace of King David of Scotland, and still bearing traces of its former grandeur; then came the Priory of Saint Mary Rouncival, the town houses of six Bishops, the superb mansion of the Earl of Arundel, and the house of the Bishops of Exeter, interspersed with smaller dwellings here and there.
Rouncival and his stud-groom could almost have sworn to the big slashing brown mare, the image of the long-lost celebrity Termagant, with the same crooked blaze down the face, the same legs, the same high croup and peculiar way of carrying her head. She corresponded exactly in age to the date on which the grand thoroughbred mare, just about to bring forth, had disappeared from Buntagong.
Particularly, the white and gray Rouncival, the common Field-Pease, and Sickle-Pease yield very well, and are of a good Relish. As for the other sorts, I have not seen any made tryal of as yet, but question not their coming to great Perfection with us.
