The Names. 
So much hath been faid oFtheir names in their titles, as hath come to our 
knowledge 5 and therefore let that fuffice. 
Thus hauing gone through the whole Family of the true Daffodils, (for fo much as 
hath come to our knowledge) and fet them downceuery one by his name, and in his 
order ; it is fit that we fpeuke of their baftard brethren, and (hew you them alfo, in the 
fame order held with the former, as neare as the plenty of variety herein, which is not 
the like with the former, will giuc leaue , that when you know them both by face and 
name, you may the better know to place or diftinguifh of others , thathaue not pafled 
vnder this rod.

The Mountaine baftard Daffodill of diuers kindes. 
There is much variety in this kinde of baftard Daffodill : For one fort hath verie 
broad and whitifh greene leaues, fomewhat fhort in comparifon ofothers, that are of 
that breadth : the flower is wholly yellow , but a little paler then the former Spanifh 
kinde, hauing the leaues of his flower long, and fomewhat narrow, (landing like wings 
about the middle trunke, which is as long as the leaues, and fmaller then in many other 
of this kinde, but a little yellower then the wings. Another fort hath narrower green 
leaues then this lad, and longer, the flower is all yellow, but the trunke is larger, wider, 
and more open at the mouth then the former, and almoft as large as the former Spa- 
nifh, but not fo high as the laft. A third hath the wings of the flower of a Strawe co- 
lour, but the trunke is long and narrow, of afaire yellow. Afourch hathfuchlike 
flowers, but that it is fhorter, both the wings and the trunke : Some likewife haue the 
wings of the flower longer , then the long trunke, and forne (horter. Some alfo are all 
yellow, and fome haue their wings onely a little more pale or white , like the Englifh 
kinde : Some againe haue their trunkes long and narrow, others haue them larger and 
wider open, and crumpled at the brimmes; fo that it is needle(Te,to fpend a great deale 
of time and labour vponfuch finally refpe&ed flowers, but that in the beholding of 
them, we may therein admire the worke of the Crcatour, who can frame fuch diuerfity 
in one thing : But this is befide the text, yet not impertinent.

The leaues of this Daffodill are of a meane fize, betweene thebroadeft and thenar- 
rower kindes, of a grayifh greene colour, and not very long : the ftalke rifeth vp a foot 
high pr more, whereon ftandeth one large great flower, equalling the greateft Spanifh 
baftard Daffodill, before deferibed , in the largeneffe of his trunke, and hauing the 
britnmes turned vp a little, which maketh it feemethe larger: the wings or outer leaues 
are in a maner as fhort, as they are in the greateft Spanifh kinde, (and not long flagging 
down .like vnto the Mountain kinds)and (land ftraight outright: all the whole flower is
