The allium cepa, by the Arabs called basal, Hasselquist thinks one of the species of onions for which the Israelites longed. He would infer this from the quantities still used in Egypt, and their goodness. " Whoever has tasted onions in Egypt (says he), must allow that none can be had better in any part of the uni- verse. Here they are sweet ; in other countries they are nau- seous and strong. Here they are soft ; whereas in the northern, and other parts, they are hard, and their coats so compa...ct that they are difficult of digestion. Hence they cannot in any place be eaten with less prejudice, and more satisfaction, than in T 1 Egypt. The Egyptians are reproached with swearing by the leeks and onions of their gardens 34 . Juvenal, Sat. Xv. Ridicules these su- perstitious people who did not dare to eat leeks, garlick, or onions, for fear of injuring their Gods. " Quis nescit, Volusi Bythynice, qualia deinens /Egyptus portenta colit. Porrum et cepa nefas violare ant frangere niorsu; O sanctas gentes quibus hiec nascuntur in hortis Xumina !" How Egypt, mad with superstition grown, Makes gods of monsters, but too well is known.
