 2 According to Gerarde Consolida 7?iaior is Comfrey : Coiisolida media, great daisie or Maudlinwort : 

 and ConsoUda minor, Daisies or Bruisewort, called ' of Tragus, Primula veris, but that name is 

 more proper unto Primrose ; of some Herba Margarita, or Margarite's Herb.' (p. 637). So Bart. 

 p. 16, ' Consolida major, consin. Consolida media, great dayeseghe. Consolida minor, bonworte.'

limited to primrose or cowslip. Bart. p. 35, 'Primula veris, herba St. Petri idem, (i.e. the oxlip)
