Volume 1 · 67 words · 1797 Edition

anatomy, one of the coats of the eye, which is also called conjunctiva and albuginea.

Adnata, is also used for any hair, wool, or the like, which grows upon animals or vegetables.

Adnafcentia, among gardeners, denote those off-sorts, which, by a new germination under the earth, proceed from the lily, narcissus, hyacinth, and other flowers, and afterwards grow to true roots. The French call them cayeux, "stalks."
