The Ninth prefents us with feveral forts of Terra Ler/i- 
ma, 1. OfiC found near the City of Roan in Normandy, 
z. One found in the Mountains of Sie^sa, agreeing in ail 
Points with 6". Paul's Earth of Malta, 3. One found in 
the Mountain of Maiello in Abruzzo^ which our Author 
thinks a fit Succedancum of the Terra Virgme aurea fore- 
mentioned. In this Obfervation the Vnlcornu fvjfile is 
briefly touched. 
The Tenth adds more forts of Terra Lemnia, as that 
of MtliHa in Sicily, and the Terra Bezoartica of Nocera, 
which he accounts a fort of Lemnia, This is endowed 
with Alexipharmac Vertues, being found by Experience 
to be very efficacious againft Malignant Fevers, Heat of 
Urine, and Fluxes of Blood. It agrees in Tafle, Smell 
and Vertues with that of Lemms or Malta, The Aqna 
Santa or Aqua di Nocera (defcribed by Anmhal CamiUus 
in a certain Treatife of his) running through the Mine or 
Veins of this Terra Lemnia, impregnates its felf wirh the 
Particles thereof, and thereby becomes fo cordial and 
corroborant, that it works miraculous Effefts in many 
Diftafes, fo that it is the Glory of Italy. It is to be uftd 
as other mineral Waters. 
In his Twelfth Obfervation he gives us a more exaft 
and particular Dt{cription of the Fungus typhoides cocci- 
neus tulerofm Melitenfis; names many Places befides 
Malta, where it is to be found, as about Tunis in Barba* 
ry^ in a little ffland n^ktCozzo, in divers places oi Sicily^ 
efpecially near Trapant in the Salt-Works, and in a little 
Ifland called Ronciglio, &c. He commends it as a fbve- 
reign Medicine againft the Dyllentery^ either taken in 
Powder or made into a Syrup. 
The Thirteenth is concerning an Urn found in Alalta^ 
containing Aflies and a Balfamick Li<|uor.
