pennyroyal

Mentha pulegium, a plant of the mint family, formerly much used in various medicinal treatments and as a flea repellent.

Dioscorides says that Pennyroyal makes thin, tough phlegm, warms the coldness of any part whereto it is applied, and digests raw or corrupt matter.

A traditional old well-known song, especially a spiritual folksong.

Offenbach and the old college airs, song and dance tunes and pennyroyals, formed the staples for the introduction of hits on manners and times.

The singing in the schoolhouse was more like that of one of the old-fashioned, large Yankee families gathered round the hearthstone and singing "pennyroyals" Sunday nights.
