t 4 The fe two following plants are by Ctufiut and Bauhine referred to this Tribe; wherefore 

 I thinkeit fitting to place them here. The former of them/rom a reddifh and as it were fcaly root 

 growing lefle by little and little^and diuided into fibers,fends forth many leaues, narrow, hoary, an 

 handfull Iong,and hauing three nerues or ribs running alongft each of them .-amongft thefecomc 

 forth diuers footftalks couercd with a foft reddifh down,and being fome two or three inches lonjL 

 hauing heads fbmewhat thicke and reddifh : the floures are whitifh,with a blackifh middlc^hich 

 makes it feem as if it were perforated or holed. Now when the plant growes old and withers, toe 

 ftalks becomming more thicke and ftiffe bend downe their heads toward the roor,fo that in f on * 

 fort they refemble the foot of a Lion. 



5 This plant which is figured in the vpper place (for I take the lower to be an cxa<5ler figj c 

 of the la ft defcribed) hath leaues like to the fmall fea Plantain,but tenderer 3 and ftanding vpngj 

 and amongft thefe on little foot-- ftalks grow headslike thofe ofPfyOium 9 but prettier,and of a* 



tifh red colour. $
