thefe I haue onely obferucd two kindes (or ra- 

 ther varieties) in this Kingdorne, which I will 

 here defcribe vnto you. The firft of thefe, 

 which is the leffer, and whofe figure wee here 

 giue you, is a proper plant fome two or three 

 inches high, diuided immediately from the 

 root into three, foure, or more branches, fet at 

 certaine fpaces with little longifh leaues, be- 

 ing broadefl at the fetting on, and fo growing 

 narrower or fharper pointed. The tops of thefe 

 ftalkes are beautified with long, hollow, and 

 pretty large floures jC onfidering the magnitude 

 of the plant, and thefe floures are of a darke 

 purplifh colour, and at theirtops diuided into 



ncd in longnh veffels.l he ftalkes and leaues are commonly of a darke greene,or elfe of a brownifh 

 colour. 



4 This from a root like, yet a little larger than the former, fends vp a pretty ftiffe round ftalke 

 offome fpan high,which atcertaine fpaces is fetwkh fuch leaues as the laftdefcribed but larger • 

 and out of the bofomes of thefe leaues from the bottome to the top of the ftalke come' forth l?rtle
