  1. Saint Johns Wortnoun

    A plant.

    This plant hath a fibrose root: the leaves grow opposite by pairs at the joints of the stalks: the flower-cup consists of one leaf, which is divided into five parts, and expanded: the flower consists of five leaves expanded like a rose, having many stamina in the centre surrounding a conical ovary, which becomes a three-cornered pointed fruit, and is divided into three cells, containing many small seeds. There are thirty species of this plant, of which the four first sorts grow wild, and the rest are exoticks. The first sort, called common Saint John’s wort, is used in medicine. Philip Miller.
