Feuchaidh ar lilibh an mhachaire cionnus fhásaid, ní
dheunaid siad saothar agus ní shníomhaid siad; gidheadh
adeirim libh nach raibh Solomón féin 'na uile ghlóir ar
n-a eadughadh mar aon díobh-so. Agus má eudaigheann
Dia mar sin luibh an mhachaire, atá a ndiu ann agus
amárach ar n-a teilgean 'san uamhain, an é nach mó
ná sin sibhse, a dhaoine beigchreidmheacha?

Dobhair sé ar an bhfeur fás don áirnéis agus an luibh
chum maitheasa an duine, chum beathadh do thabhairt
amach as an dtalmhain, agus fíon gháirdigheas croidhe
an duine, agus ola dobheir ar aghaidh deallrughadh, agus
arán neartuigheas croidhe an duine. Atáid croinn an
Tighearna lán do shúbh. Dobheura crann an mhachaire a
thoradh agus dobheura an talamh a biseach.

Ó a uile neithe glasa ar an talmhain, beannuighidh an
Tighearna! molaidh é agus móraighidh é go síordhuidhe!

PREFACE.

CALEB THRELKELD, of Cumberland, was the first
to publish the Irish-Gaelic names of plants; John
Cameron, of Sunderland, published 1230 Scottish and
Irish names. In 1898 two or three Irish writers
published the smallest collection, viz., eighty names, in
the biggest book on Irish Botany. Is not this another
proof that the Irish are a Gens incuriosa suorum?

Feeling humbled at this incuria, and being en-
couraged by a patriotic friend who offered to defray
the expenses of printing, I resolved to publish my
collection which contained about four thousand Irish
and Scottish names of plants, as well as Irish words
immediately connected with their culture and uses.
But being otherwise much occupied, I could not have
published the book so soon, or so well, if I had not
been helped by the two competent scholars whose
names are linked with mine on the title-page.

As many of the words are Highland-Gaelic, they
are printed as the Scots write them; others, from
Threlkeld, K'Eogh, Wade, Hart, the Béarlagair na Saer,
and Lord Walter Fitz Gerald, are printed phonetically
as I found them, but in most, if not in all, cases, the
correct Irish spelling has been suggested: for example,

"Dohough dugh," of which I give the true form,
dathabha dubh. Such phonetic forms are generally marked
with inverted commas.

Some words immediately connected with agriculture,
horticulture, wood, corn, etc., were inserted before the
plant-names increased and multiplied in my manuscript,
and they were left there as they might interest students
of Irish. To keep down the bulk and price of this
handbook I resisted the following temptations to show,
as I went along:- 1°. How certain words, in number
about 150, enter into the topographical nomenclature
of Ireland and Scotland; 2°. How several, perhaps 150,
appear as personal names, such as Eithne (kernel of a
nut), Míliuch (germander), Conaire (purple-spiked loose-
strife), Conán (quaking grass); 3°. How personal names
form part of plant-names, such as Mitire, Brígit, Pátraic,
Columb-cille, Cú-chulainn; 4°. How several plants are
connected with the fancies of Irish and Scottish folklore.
The first part has been discussed in two very inter-
esting chapters of Dr. Joyce's "Irish Names of Places."
Further treatment of that, and of the other matters, I
leave to other times or other hands.

In conclusion, I beg to tender my thanks to the
Rev. Maxwell H. Close, for the use of O'Curry's manu-
script; to Messrs. Blackwood and Son, for the permis-
sion to quote largely from Cameron; to Lord Walter
Fitz Gerald, for his collection of plant-names; and to
Mr. John MacNeill and Count Plunkett, for directing
my attention to two important sources.

EDMUND HOGAN.

SOURCES.

1. The Saint Gall Glosses, written in about the eighth
century, contain many Irish names of plants with their Latin
equivalents: edited by Ascoli.

2. Two MSS. of the fourteenth or fifteenth century, found
in the British Museum, and Trinity College, Dublin, and edited
by Dr. Whitley Stokes, in vol. ix., pp. 225 et seq., of the Revue
Celtique, give about 120 Irish names with Latin equivalents.

3. Dr. Whitley Stokes' various tracts give many Irish words
with their Latin or English equivalents. Among these I may
mention:- 1°. Old-Irish Glosses on the Bucolics, from two tenth-
century Codices. 2°. A Mediæval Tract on Latin Declension.
3°. On the Metrical Glossaries of the Mediaeval Irish. 4°. Cormac's
Glossary. 5°. On the Bodleian Fragment of Cormac's Glossary,
6°. "O'Mulconry's" Glossary, of the thirteenth or fourteenth
century, in "Archiv für Keltische Lexicographie," vol. i., p. 233.

4. A medical MS., "Materia Medica," of the fourteenth or
fifteenth century, gives 156 names, with Latin equivalents. It
is in the Royal Irish Academy's Library, marked 23/K.42.

5. A manuscript, which in 1726 was in the possession of
Dr. Caleb Threlkeld, 1 and seemed to him to have been written
before the war of 1641, contained about 407 Irish (and Latin
or English) names of trees, shrubs, plants, herbs, and flowers,
distinguishing the Ulster, Leinster, Connacht, Munster names,
and even those of counties, such as Wicklow, Carlow, Kildare,
Leix, etc. The author's name, says Threlkeld, was probably
Heaton, the name of an Irish divine quoted in the botanical
works of How and Merrett.

On July 8th, 1726, from his house in Mark's-alley, Francis-
street, Dublin, Caleb Threlkeld issued his "Short Treatise of
Native Plants, with their Latin, English, and Irish Names; and

an Abridgment of their Vertues… the first Essay of this
kind in the Kingdom of Ireland. Dublin: Printed by Powell for
Davys of Ross-lane, Norris, at the corner of Crane-lane, and
Worrall, opposite to the Swan-tavern on the Blind-key, 1727."

Threlkeld, born in Cumberland, became a dissenting minister,
and in 1712 an M.D. "Having a straight income and a large
family, he removed to Dublin" (as many Englishmen so circum-
stanced did before and after him), and "settled there in the united
character of Divine and Physician." He died in 1728, and was
buried "in the new burial ground belonging to St. Patrick's."

His 407 Irish names were copied from a manuscript, which,
he says, "bears great authority with me. I could not find
any living persons could come near this MS., either for number
or exactness of names among all those I conversed with viva
voce… During the summer months I used to perambulate
in company of ingenious men, to have ocular demonstration
of the plants themselves in their native soil, where Nature
regaled our senses with her gaiety and garnishes, which makes
some resemblance of the paradisaical state… Now,
readers, as I have intended to improve according to my station
and capacity, so I would stir you up to contribute your quota,
that we may wipe off that ugly characteristic which Pomponius
Mela has fixed upon the Irish inhabitants, Cultores ejus in-
conditos esse. Let the polite world know that Arts and Sciences
flourish here and are encouraged, as much as in any other parts
of Europe."

Alas poor Threlkeld! He got even less encouragement than
those who write about things Irish from Irishmen of the present
day. His subscribers numbered ninety-nine, and of these forty-
three were "of Galway." What connexion had he with those
Galway Papists, five Ffrenches, and seven Lynches, etc.?

He thinks "the reason why this branch of learning has been
dormant in Ireland, and no public advances made towards its
illustration are: that the wars and commotions have laid an
imbargo upon the pens of the learned, or discord among the
petty subaltern princes has rendered perambulation perilous, lest
they should be treated as spies, as I was myself once."

6. In 1735 there was "Printed and sold by Harrison, at the
corner of Meeting-house Lane, Cork, A General Irish Herbal
…an account of the Herbs, Shrubs, and Trees naturally

produced in Ireland, in English, Irish, and Latin, with a true
description of them and their medicinal virtues, by John K'Eogh,
A.B., Chaplain to Lord Kingston."

It is dedicated to MacDonnell, Earl of Antrim, to whom
he says:- "Since your Lordship is descended from Ancient
Gathelian Monarchs, I hope you will encourage any under-
taking which tends to the benefit of Old OGYGIA, especially
that of our native Vegetables (sic)… This undertaking was
never attempted before, that I could hear of. I only break the
ice before others of more exalted genius." A comparison of
the two books shows me that K'Eogh had Threlkeld's book,
or at least the Irish MS. copied by that writer, or some such
manuscript. But he has about 547 Irish names, or 140 more
than the other. Besides for "the benefit of mankind," he
shows what herbs are: Anastomatic, leptyntic, riptic, stegnotic,
pycknotic, emphratic, metasynritic, escharotic, emmenagogic, etc.

He gives the names phonetically, to help botanists, to whom
he says: "You will gain great advantage by having the name
of the herb in Irish, for in case you did not know it or where you
might find it, only repeat the name in Irish to one of your little
botanists, and he will fetch it to you presently."

K'Eogh got more encouragement than the Dublin English
doctor. He had 370 subscribers, and among these were:
MacCarthy Mór, the Archbishop of Cashel, 1 bishop, 7 earls,
6 viscounts, 8 barons, 7 baronets, 3 knights, 10 ladies of rank,
and 4 Sons of noblemen; 108 esquires, 1 gent, 6 colonels, 4 captains,
3 lieutenants, 1 cornet; 9 doctors of medicine, 23 clergymen,
6 counsellors-at-law, and 2 attorneys; and 162 of the old Irish
or old Anglo-Irish race.

7. In 1780, Lightfoot's "Flora Scotica" contains 156 Gaelic
names, "which, with few exceptions" (says Cameron), "cor-
respond with those published in Ireland; and the same is true
of Alexander McDonald's list published in his vocabulary edited
in 1741." 1

8. In 1785, Peter O'Connell wrote 250 names with English
equivalents in a MS. marked 23/L.21 in the Royal Irish Academy,
pp. 41-51.

9. In 1794, Dr. Wade, of Dublin, in his Latin catalogue of

plants in the Co. Dublin, gives 440 Irish names. Among his
authorities he does not quote Threlkeld or K'Eogh! He says he
collected the Irish names with all possible diligence, but whether
from books, manuscripts, or the mouths of the people he does
not tell. He says he saw all those plants himself in the County
Dublin, and as Gaelic was spoken in his time at Bohernabreena
and on the slopes of the Dublin mountains, Wade may have
got the Irish names from the people of that most romantic
region. Mr. Kevin Doyle, of Bohernabreena, or near it, told me
that his father was punished for speaking Irish on his way to or
from school! Each boy had a tell-tale bit of stick tied round his
neck; each infraction of the anti-Gaelic law was notched on the
stick, then marked on the boy's hands or back by the master and
the parents!

10. In 1840, O'Curry, in an "Alphabetical List of Names of
Irish Herbs," gives about 1335 English names with their Irish
equivalents; the first Irish word being geanmohrann, and the
last drúichtín móna. I beg to thank the Rev. Maxwell H. Close
for the use of this MS.

O'Curry's authorities are a Medical Tract, Threlkeld, K'Eogh,
O'Reilly, whom we had consulted, and Casey and Crabbe whom
we had not seen. As O'Curry gives the English words first, and
in alphabetical order, we were able to collate our English-Irish
vocabulary with it. In our Irish-English part we have constantly
appended O'Curry's name after words which had already been in
our collection, and inserted many that we had not. Few, if any,
of O'Curry's words are omitted in the body of our book, or in the
Appendices.

11. In 1883, John Cameron, of Sunderland, published "Gaelic
Names of Plants," issued by W. Blackwood and Son. He is
since dead, and his work, as I have ascertained from the pub-
lishers, is no longer on sale. Cameron, "for scientific and
philological reasons, made an attempt to collect such names
as are still used in the spoken Gaelic of Scotland and Ireland
before it became too late by the gradual disappearance of the
language." He spent nearly ten years in searching vocabu-
laries, reading Irish and Scotch Gaelic, and in making numerous
journeys among the Gaelic-speaking populations. He says:-
"No collection would be of any value unless the Irish names
were incorporated; it is certain that (Gaelic Botany) in vetusta

Hibernica fundamentum habet." So Cameron gives all the
Irish and Scottish names he could find, that is, about 1230. The
work is marred by the wildest and most absurd attempts at
derivation, in which, he says, the late "Canon Bourke gave
most valuable assistance." Again, it is not in alphabetical
order. Ru is the first word, and griobhasgaich is the last.

12. O'Reillv, O'Begley, Coneys, Connellan, Foley, and
Armstrong contain very many names of plants, though they
do not give the sources whence they got them — all these dic-
tionaries have been fully utilised.

13. Mr. Hart and Mr. Ferguson have given phonetically the
Ulster names of plants; these names are in Mr. R. Chichester
Hart's "Flora" of the Co. Donegal.

15. Forty-one plant-names gathered by Lord Walter Fitz-
Gerald from the people in Kildare, Wexford, Galway, and Mayo.

16. A paper on Béarlagair na Saer, the dialect of the trades-
men of Munster. This was published by me in Number 98 of
the Gaelic Journal; it consists of sentences and words which
I learned from William Hyde, of Ballycotton, Co. Cork.

17. Dr. Joyce's "Irish Names of Places" has two very
interesting chapters, in which are discussed 110 Irish plant-
names that enter largely into the topographical nomenclature
of Ireland.

18. Various volumes of the Gaelic Journal.

19. Three Irish Medical Glossaries, edited by Dr. Wh. Stokes,
in "Archiv für Celtische Lexicographie," Band I., pp. 325-347.
These Glossaries are: 1°. In Trinity College, H. 3. 15. p. 47;
2°. H. 3. 15. p. 49 — it is a sixteenth-century volume; 3°. Lord
Crawford's Irish "Medical MS.", fo. 117 a 1.

20. Peter O'Neachtain's "List of Irish, Latin, and English
Names of Plants," in an Irish MS. marked 20 of the King's Inns'
Library, written circ. 1732.

21. Sources which I had not time to draw on:- In Trinity
College (H. 2. 17. pp. 279-317; H. 3. 4. p. 61; H. 3. 7. p. 133;
H.3. 15. p.21, et seq.). In the Royal Irish Academy (23/O.6, pp. 19-31,
p. 34; 23/I,21). In the British Museum (Add. 15. 403: Egerton, 119).
These are mentioned by M. Gaidoz, in Revue Celtiqiue, vol. vii.,
p. 162, in a paper in which he expresses an ardent desire to see a
Gaelic Flora published.

NOTES ON THE USE OF THIS BOOK.

If you look out in the English-Irish part for "Forget-me-not," or
other words, and do not find them, then look in an English Dictionary
on Botany, and find another name by which it is known, and you can
thus get the Irish equivalent. For instance, "Scorpion grass" is a
"Forget-me-not."
