and Vinegar, and apply’d to the fore part of the Head, af- 
{wages the Pain thereof, and in fhort, ‘tis good againft all

creafing its felf by Sced, which ripens at different times of the

when the Seed is carefully faved , and fown about Bartholo- 
mew-tide, wit willjoby the nex Summer, be greatly improved,
