The (jar den of pleafant Flowers. 
Campion, but not fo large, or rather refembling the lcaues of fweete Williams, but 
that they grow not fo clofe , nor fo many together : the (hikes hauc fmaller leaues at 
the ioynts then thofe belowc, and branched at the toppe, with many pale , but bright 
red flowers, iagged or cut in on the edges, like the feathered Pinke, whereof fomc haue 
taken it to be a kinde , and feme for a kinde of wilde William , but yet is but a wilde 
Campion, as may be obferued, both by his huske that beareth the flowers, and by the 
grayifh roundilh feedc, being not of the Family of Pinkes and Gillowers,but (as I faid) 
of the Campions : the roote is full of firings or fibres. 
The double kindcis very like vnto the fingle kinde, but that it is lower and fmaller 
Ind the flowers very double. 
8 . Lychnis fllueliru flore flent ruhrt. Red Batchclours buttonsi 
The double wilde Campion (which of our Countrey Gentlewomen is called Bat- 
chelours buttons) is very like both in rootes, leaues, (hikes , and flowers vnto the or- 
dinary wilde red Campion, but fomewhat leifer, his flowers are not iagged, buc 
fmooth, and very thicke and double, fothat mod commonly it breaketh his’ (here 
huske, wherein the flower ftandeth on the one fide, feldome hauing a whole huske, 
and arc of a reddifh colour. 
9. LychnU fllueflru fltre tlht plene. White Batchclours buttons. 
As the lcaues of the former double Campion was like vnto the fingle kindethat had 
red flowers, fo this hath his leaues like vnto the fingle white kinde, differing in noo- 
cher thing from it, but in the doubleneffc of the flowers, which by reafon of the multi- 
plicity of leaues in them thrufting forth together, breaketh his huskes wherein the 
flowers doe (land, as the other doth, and hath fcarcc one flower in many that is whole. 
10. Ocymeides trheret Jemfer virens. Strange Baflil Campion. 
This Strange Campion (for thereunto it rauft bee referred) (hooteth forth many 
round, whitifh, wooddy, but brittle ftalkes,whereon (land diuers long, and fomewhat 
thicke leaues, fet by couples , narrow at the bottorac , and broader toward rhe point, 
of a very fairegreene and (hining colour, fothat there is more beauty in the greeae 
leaues, which doe foalwaies abide, then in the flowers , which are of a pale red or 
blufh colour, confiding offiuefmall long broad pointed leaues, notched in themid- 
dle, which doe not lye clofe , but loofly as it were hanging ouer the huskes : after the 
flowers are pad, there come heads that containc blackilh feede :the roote is final! 
bard, white,and threadie.

I tnuft needes infert this fmall plant, to finifli this part of the Campions, whereunto 
it belongeth, being a pretty toye to furnifh and decke out a Garden. It fpringeth vp (if 
it haue beene once fowne and fuffered to died) in the later end of theyearemoft com- 
monly, or elfe in the Spring with fiue or fix fmall leaues , very like vnto the leaues of 
Pinkes, and of the fame grayifh colour , buta little broader and (horter , and when it 
beginneth to fhoote vp for flower, it beareth fmaller lcaues on the clammy or vifeous 
ftalkes (fit to hold any fmall thing that lightethon it) being broad at the bottome 
compafling them, and (landing two at a ioynt one againft another : the toppes of the 
ftalkes arediuerfly branched into feuerall parts , euery branch hauing diuers fmall red 
flowers, not notched, but fmooth, (landing out of fmall, long, round, ftript huskes, 
which after the flowers arc pad, containe fmall grayifh feede : the roote is fmall, 
andperifheth after it hathgiucnfcedejbut rifeth (as is before faid) of its ownc (cede, 
if it be fuffered to fhed.
