The stalks or braunches for the most parte growe uppe of 2 or 

 3 foot high devided into branches even from the root, about which 

 growe leaves out of order, not one against another like the yealowe 

 flowred CerintJie, but somethinge lesser, of a greene and blewe 

 color as it were mixed together, also spotted with white spots on 

 the upper side, the topps of the stalks bend downewards, and send 

 forth amonge the leaves, out of cupps whose footstalks (not cupps 

 as Clusius was informed) are of a deepe purple color, longe hollowe 

 flowers like those of the said yealowe flowred CermtJie growinge 

 but one in a place, of a redd purple color, which seeme to be 

 sprinckled with a certaine whiteness, which fallen there followeth 

 blackish seed contayned in small seed vcssells two usually ioyned 

 together in forme like to the seed of Borage or redd Ciches, but as 

 bigge as a pease. The root is white and short with a fewe small 

 branches or th redds, and perisheth when the seed is ripe. —

 growe umbells of flowers, reddish before they open, after of a per- 

 fecte white color, the leaves that growe on the out side of ech 

 particular flower are greater and broader then those within ; close 

 under ech umbell groweth a rowe of greene leaves cutt and devided

 greate prickley burrs half as bigge as those of Xaiithinvi sett with 

 rowcs of large prickles everie burr when it is ripe partinge into 

 2 parts contayninge one seed a peece. The root is small white 

 threddie in smell like to a carrott and perisheth when the seed
