midling Bowl. 
A WARTED-BRANCH. Tis of Oak; about as thick 
as ones middle Finger $ the Warts the bignefsof Hajle- 
Nuts. 
Another BRANCH with four or five great Warts or 
Wens upon the fides. Worm 1 us, who hath one like to thefe; 
not of Oak_ , but Hajle, calls it Lignum Strumofum. 
An Oaken BRANCH permitted to grow for fome time, 
after the Barque had been cut round about to the Wood, 
By which means, that part of the Branch above the Cutis*, 
is grown much thicker, than that underneath 5 the one 
being little, more than an inch about, the other almoft two 
inches. Neither is it only the fwelth of the Barque, but 
the Wood it felf is augmented. An Experiment lately 
made by Sig r . Malpghi 3 and may feem an argument for 
the Circulation of the Sap. In what manner the Circulation 
of the Sap is performed, efpecially in the Root, the Author 
of this Catalogue hath fome years fince explicated, (a) (a) in his 
A piece of a BRANCH naturally lhaped bke a Penk f***^. 
with a pair of Tefticles annexed. Wormius hath one like to 2. 
this, which he calls Lignum Inverecundum. 
A WINGED-BRANCH of AJh. About two feet and * 
long, and fubdivided into two leffer. Where the divifion 
begins, the Barque is fpread out from the Wood for the 
breadth of above an inch, and of the thicknefs of S beeps 
Leather , and fo joyns both the Branches together for the 
length of about a foot. From thence they are perfectly 
divided, and fo wind two feveral ways, almoft like a Rams 
Horn 5 the Barque being fpread out all along to their ends : 
yet only fo as to make them edged. The two ends, with 
Buds like little Claws on the edges, look like a Seals Feet, 
Wormius hath fome Branches, not of AJh, but Fim which 
feem in fome part anfwerable to this now defcribcd, 
t A HASLE BRANCH feeming as if it were naturally 
TWISTED. But made fo by a Woodbind or fome other
