The feeds of many are round, fome 

 long, fome foliaceous aiid broad, as the 

 atriplex or orach 5 fome narrow and 

 channeird, as the cmiimin. Nor are 

 there lefs diftindionS in their colours, 

 fome being white, fome black. The 

 radifli, muftard and rape produce fmall 

 circular leaves. The feed of parQey^ 

 coriander, fennel and cummin, are na- 

 ked $ but that of the biite, beet, atri- 

 plex, fweet bafil, &c. are covered ali 

 Over with a tdugh skin 5 as the lettuce is 

 invefted with a woollen garbs with much 

 more to the fame purpofe, which that 

 great naturaiift- produces to fhew the great 

 variety there is in garden feedsi

 appropriate this chapter to, is the parti- 

 cular fliape of each feed, and of fueh 

 other things which contribute to or de- 

 fcribe the produdion or multiplication 

 of any fort of plant or legume 5 which 

 1 Ihall do in an alphabetical order.

 by which only it is multiplied, being 

 fown in February or March j it is pretty 

 fmall, of a yellowini green, and of a 

 longifli wall figure ftrip'd*
