The Attire I find to be of two 

 kinds, Semjnie znA Florie: That 

 which I call Seminie^ is made up 

 of two general parts^ Chives and 

 Semets^ one upon each C/?/z;f.Thele 

 ^'e^e/j have the appearance (efpe- 

 cid.Wymmz.nj flowers^ of (b many 

 Yitnt Seeds ^ hut are quite another 

 kind of Body : For upon enquiry 

 we findj that thefe Semets^ though 

 they feem to be folid, and for 

 Ibme time after their firft formati- 

 oUj are entire f> yet are they really 

 hollow 3 and their fide, or fides^ 

 which \vere at firft entire^at length 

 crack aiunder: And that more- 

 over the Concave of each Semet is 

 not a meer vacuityj but fill'd up 

 v/ith a number of minute Particles^ 

 in form of a Powder , which 5 

 though common to all ^e/^e^/, yet 

 in fom.ej and particularly thofe of 

 a T?//;p5 being larger, is more di- 

 ftinftly obfervable.
