     the same origin as E. musk; cf. OF. noix muguette nutmeg, F.

     elsewhere in the tropics.
     [1913 Webster]
  
     Note: This fruit is a nearly spherical drupe, of the size of
           a pear, of a yellowish color without and almost white
           within. This opens into two nearly equal longitudinal
           valves, inclosing the nut surrounded by its aril, which
           is mace. The nutmeg is an aromatic, very grateful to
           the taste and smell, and much used in cookery. Other
           species of Myristica yield nutmegs of inferior
           quality.
