[In the fair copy (f. 122) Goodyer altered the name ' floribus uvae ' 

 to * quercus floribus'. The rough copy (MS. f. 120 a) has the notes 

 * about ye beg. of July, or fortnight before Lamas ' and ' both begunn 

 to flower 2 Junij 1621' written in the margin. If the year 1622 given 

 in the text be correct, Goodyer would appear to have been at Durford 

 two years running on the 2nd of June.]

 Tribulus aquaticus minor, muscatellae floribus. 2 Junii 1621 



This hath not flatt stalkes Hke the other, but round, kneed, and 

 alwaies bearing two leaves at every ioint, one opposite against 

 another, greener, shorter and lesser then the other, sharpe pointed, 

 not much wrinckled and crumpled by the edges. Chisius saith, 

 that they are not at all crompled. I never observed any without 

 crumples and wrinckles. The flowers grow on short small foot- 

 stalkes, of a whitish green colour, like those of Miiscatella Cordi, 

 called by Gerard, Radix cava minima viridi jiore : viz. two flowers 

 at the top of every foot-stalke, one opposite against another, every 

 flower containing foure small leaves : which two flowers beeing 

 past there come up eight small husks making six several waies 

 a square of flowers. The roots are like the former. This groweth 

 abundantly in the river by Droxford in Hampshire. It flowereth 

 in June and July when the other doth, and continueth covered over 

 with water, greene, both winter and somer. — MS. fl". 120 a, 122; 

 Ger. eviac. 823-4. 



[The rough copy (MS. f. 120a) has the note 'in running brooks' 

 and a reference to Clusius cclij after the name.]

 Melilotus Indiae orientalis. n Junij 1621 



This is in stalks, branches, leaves flowers and smell altogether 

 like Melilotus Italica Camerarii, but smaller more branched & 

 delicate, not growinge so high, & the stalks arc grcenc and have 

 no redd at all. 1| The seed is also like, but smaller. The root 

 groweth downe right, and is small white, with a very iewo. thredds, 

 and perisheth when the seed is ripe the same yere it is sowen. 

 II This hath not becne written of by any that I find. I receavcd seeds 

 thereof from Mr. William Coys often remembred. — I\IS. f. 97.
