Bitterwort \Bit"ter*wort`\, n. (Bot.)
   The yellow gentian ({Gentiana lutea}), which has a very
   bitter taste.

Gentian \Gen"tian\, n. [OE. genciane, F. gentiane, L. gentiana,
   fr. Gentius, an Illyrian king, said to have discovered its
   properties.] (Bot.)
   Any one of a genus ({Gentiana}) of herbaceous plants with
   opposite leaves and a tubular four- or five-lobed corolla,
   usually blue, but sometimes white, yellow, or red. See
   Illust. of {Capsule}.

   Note: Many species are found on the highest mountains of
         Europe, Asia, and America, and some are prized for
         their beauty, as the Alpine ({Gentiana verna},
         {Bavarica}, and {excisa}), and the American fringed
         gentians ({G. crinita} and {G. detonsa}). Several are
