the like: wherein one and the fame Part, is both the Ew alement of the 
Flower, andwhen that is gone, furvivesas the Cafe of the seed, 
3. 5. Ofthe aft, is that of Magru Monjpermon, Lithojpern, 
all the Stones of Fruits, with divers others. And fome fis, which 
are foft, as, I think, that of Garde» Radifh, The former, by cleaving 
in fome part or others thee only by roting under Ground. 
4. § THAT of Garden Radif, isa Light and Spongy or Pithy 
Body 5 originally, every where entire. But, as it ripens, breaks with- 
in, into feveral White and Dry: Membranes round about the Seed By Tah ve 
the Length and about 3h of an Inch diftant from the Sides of the Cafe, im 
do runa pair of little Vafinlar Ropes. Some finallèr Fibres are from 
thefe tranfmitted to the sides of the Cafe; by which they are kept 
tite and fteady. Upon divers others produced towards the Centre, hang 
the Seeds, like Two Ropes of Onions. 
5. $. Of thofe which open fo foon as the Seed is tipes fome are 
made to open at the Tap, as Popy Heads ; Some on the Side, as molt 
Cods ; and fome at the ‚Bottom, asthat of Coded Arfinart, 
6. $. THE Popy-Head, isa little Dove Costs divided by Eight 
or Ten Partitions, into fo many Stal/s. On both sides the Partitions, Tab. 7 
hangs a molt numerous Brood of Seeds. The Partitions and sides o¢ 24-70: 
the Head, are made of the Barque, and Lined with the Pith, While 
young, they are very thick and spongy 5 and together with the Seeds, do 
then fill all up. The Head is then alfo every where entire; but as it dries, 
it gradually opens at the Top, into feveral Windows,one for every Stall: 
which are all covered’with a very fair Canopy. A Fabrick defigned for 
feveral purpofes, as fhall hearafter be faid. 
7. $: OF thofe which open on thé side; fome are made to open, 
only on One Side; fome, on both Sidess fome, with Three Sides 5 
fome, with more; and fome horizontally or round about. 
8. $. THE COD of Garden Bean (and fo the reft ofthe Legu- 
uinons kind) opens on one side. Ic hath a Twofold Parenchyma The 
Utmoft derived from the Bargue: in which ftand all the Pefels, in f Tab. 70, 
veral Parcels; one whereof, at the Back of the Cod, is much larger 4 
than the reft, fhaped like a Copula ufed in Schemes ; from whence fhoot 
thofe lefler Fibres upon which the Beans do grow. 
9. $. The Inner Parenchyma is derived from the Pith, Upon its 
Nativity, and for fome time afterwards, entire and wholly compofed of 
Bladders, as the Outer. From the Bafe of the Cod they are gradually 
enlarged, fo as to compofe this Parenchymainto a very foft and delicate 
Sponge. In which (the Cod being well grown ) the very Threds where- > 
of the Bladders were woven, are many ofthem fo loofe and ample, as 7% 
eafily to be drawn out (as in the uroaving of Kait-work ) to a confi- 
derable Length, fairly vifible through an ordinary G/afs, 
To. $. This may further confirm all that I have formerly faid of the B, 2, Por. 
Fibrous Texture of the Pith, and of all the other Parenchymons Parts of Ch, 5.& Be 
Plants, 3.P.1.Ch.4, 
IX. $ THE Seed-cafe of Medica, isa Cod wound up: in the 
Echinata, spirally in the Tornata, by an Helix. Not finifhed all toge- 
ther; but, upon the fall of the Flower, beginning to wind, continues 
its Circles, till it be come to its full Growth.
