It is proper to observe in this place, that only the 
herbs in flower, or even the flowers alone, of the pre- 
ceding plants are to be used. Some of them are more 
weak than others, and accordingly must be used in a dif- 
ferent way. But as to the following ones, their leaves 
and branches, as likewise the unripe fruits of them, the 
seeds, and even the roots of some of them, are all equally 
fit for tanning.
