As likevvife in the Trimrofe^ with 

 the green Flower^ <;pmmonly fo 

 caird^though by a miftake^for that 

 which feems to be;' the Flovper^ is 

 only the more flourifhing Empale- 

 ment ^ the FloTver it felf being 

 whiter but the continuation of 

 all the three aforefeid Parts into 

 each Empaler^ is difcoverable^ I 

 think, no where better than in an 

 Artichoke^ which is a true Flower^ 

 and whofe Empalers are of that 

 amplitude, as fairly to (hew them 

 all; Asalfo, that the Original of 

 the ^4^/; of each Empaler isnot di- 

 ftinfl: from that of the reft 5 but to 

 be all one piece, laid info many 

 Plaits or Duplicatures as there are 

 Empaler s , from the outermoft to 

 the inner and moft central ones. 



TheDelign of the Empalement^ 

 is to be fecurity and Bands to the 

 other two Parts of the F^zper: To
