Hauing thus farre proceeded in thetwo parts of thekindesof Anemones or Wind- 
flowers, it remaineth to entreate of the reft, which is thofc Anemones which haue thin 
cut leaues, whereof fome haue reckoned vp thirty forts with Angle flowers, which I

Winter frofts be paft, that is, about the middle or end of February, and are fomewhat

three leaues, euery one cut in about the edges, one Handing againft another vpona

three grecne ftalkes , garnilhed with fuch like thin leaues as are at the bottome , from 
aboue which rife the flowers, but one vpon a ftalke, confiding of fourteene or fifteene 
fmall pale blew or watchct leaues, lefferthen any of the Angle kindes that follow, 
compalfing many whicilh threads, and a fmall greene head in the middle, fomewhat 
like the head of the wilde Crowfoote, wherein is contained fuch like feedc : the rootc 
is blackilh without, thrufting out into long tuberous pecces, fomewhat like vnto fome 
of the broad leafed Anemones.

ally, but fometimes they will haue feuen or eight, being very large , and of a perfect 
purple Violet colour, very fairc and liuely : the middle head hath many blackilh 
thrums or threads about it, which I could neuer obferue in my Gardens to beare feed : 
the rootc is fmaller, and mote fpreading euery way into fmall long flat tuberous parrs, 
then any other kindes of fingleor double Anemones.

large leaues, of an excellent red colour, which w e call a Scarlet ; the bottom es of the 
leaues are large and white, and the thrums or threads in the middle of a blackilh pur- 
plecolour : the rooteis tuberous, but confiding of thicker peeces, fomewhat like vnto 
the rootesofthe broad leafed Anemones, but fomewhat browne, and not foblacke,
