A S an appendix tothe Crowfeete, I muft needes addethis plant, vet feuerally 
by it fclfe, becaufebothitand his Angle kindeareby mod adioynecl there- 
unto, for the ncare rcfemblanct both in lhape and fhai-pencfie of quality. The 
Angle kinde I leaue to the Ditch (ides, and moift grounds about them, as the fitted pl a l 
ccs for it, and onely bring the double kinde into my Garden, as fitted for his goodly 
proportion and beauty to be entertained; and haue place therein. 3 
The doubleMarlh Marigold hath many broad and round greene Ieaues, a little en- 
dented about the edges, like vnto the (ingle kinde, but not altogether fo large, cfpeci- 
ally in a Garden where it ftartdeth not very moift : the ftalkes are weake , round hol- 
low, andgreene, diuided into'threeorfourebranchesatthetoppe, with Ieaues at the 
feuerall ioy nts, whereon (land very double flowers, ofa gold yellow colour : the fiue 
outer Ieaues being larger then any of the reft that are cncompafted by them, which 
fallaway after they haue flood blowne a great while (foritendureth infloweramo- 
neth.or more, ofpecially if it ftand in a ftndo wie place) without bearing any feed : the
