The firft Sort is a Plant fometime* 

 ufed in Phyfic, and is gather'd fre- 

 quently in moiil Meadows, and at 

 fome Diftance from London. This 

 may be kept jn a Garden, if planted 

 in a moift Soil ; and is increafed by 

 parting the Roots. 



The fecond Sort is a much lefs 

 Plant than the firft, and is woolly 

 and foft to the Touch ; but thi^ 

 Plant, when cultivated in a good 

 Soil, will grow to be almolt as big 

 as the firfv. 



The third Sort is found wild in 

 Weft mor land, and other Northern 

 Paits of England: this, with the 

 two former, is preferved in curious 

 Botanic Gardens ; but as there is 

 little Beauty in them, they are fel- 

 dom planted in Gardens for Plea- 

 fure : they are all propagated by 

 parting their Roots, or fowing their 

 Seeds foon after they are ripe. 



The fourth Sort is an annual 

 Plant, which is very plentifully 

 found on Heaths, and other uncul- 

 tivated Places, in divers Parts of 

 England '; and if once tranfplanted 

 into a Garden, and fuffered to ripen 

 Seeds, will come up and maintain 

 itfclf without any Care. This 

 Plant is often brought to the Mar- 

 kets in London, and fold for Rup- 

 ture-wort, which is a very differ- 

 ent Plant ; but is not to be found 

 wild near London. 



Thefe Plants are many of them 

 preferved in Botanic Gardens for 

 Variety : they all grow wild in 

 England, Holland, and FLmkrs, ex- 

 cept th r e two lait-mention'd, which 

 Mqnf Tlumefort found in his Voy* 

 age to the Lewvt. They are mofl 

 Ci' them annual Piants; and if they 

 are permitted to fhed their Seeds m 

 Autumn, the Piants will corns up*
