(London Dispen. p. 182.) The seed of The seed of wormwood is used by the rectifiers of British spirits, and the species is a good deal cultivated on dry soil near Mitcham, in Surrey, for that purpose. A. vulgaris is used in some parts of Sweden instead of hops, in order to increase the inebriating quality of malt liquor. The plant is readily eaten by cattle and sheep, and is found in our best natural pastures on dry soils. It is said to be stomachic and slightly stimulating. The species called Abrotanum, Garde-robe, Fr., derives its name from a, privative, and βρoτoς, mortal; on account of the great virtues attributed to it as a preservative of life Absinthium, from a, privative, and ψivθoς, pleasure, i. e. unpleasant.
