Woodruff,
on
the
Rhine
called
“
Wald-meister,”
is
found
in
woods,
round
the
stems
of
oaks.
It
grows
about
seven
inches
high,
bearing
a
white
jessamine
flower.
Its
perfume
is
.
similar
to
new-mown
hay.
It
keeps
its
flavour
when
dried;
and
it
is
best
to
bruise
the leaves
when
required
for
use.
It
can
be
procured
at
any
of
the
herbalists in
Covent
Garden.
