mid ft of thefe Leaves , ^ alfo from the fldes, /print's 
up one Stalk , and fometimes two , or woro, thick and 
roundifh , and fometimes a little flat and cornered , 0 
foot or more high , bearing at the top (out of a skinny 
Husk) eight , ten or twelve , or more very large 
Flowers , conflfling of fix white Leaves apiece , fpread 
or laid open , with a white or fhort Cup or Crown in 
the middle, lying flat upon the Leaves , cut or divi- 
ded into fix Corners , ( and not whole , ^ the Cup or 
Crown of any other Single Daffodil •, ) /rorz ouory of 
which Edges or Corners of this Cup or Crown pro- 
ceeds one white long Thread , a little crooked or turn- 
ing up at the end , with a yellow Pendent , 
yo//2<? o//;or zo/;/>o Threads , /i/tf with yellow Pendents , 
/landing alfo in the middle. After the Flower is 
pafl , £ro<2/ threefquare Heads come forth , in which 
the Seed is contained , which is great, black and round , 
like unto the Seed of other Daffodils , but greater.

IV. Tfro fecond , or Indian Autumn Sea, has a 
Root , oj Lobel /ayr, d ypo# /org, of //;<? /A/ci- 
ro/f of a Man's Arm , covered with many white Shells , 
of which the outwardmoft are of a dark red , or 
Cheft-nut oo/or. The Flowers are eight or ten in 
number , ouory oro by its felf upon a fhort Foot-Jlalk , 
d&afe of yZ* Leaves apiece , fomewhat long , narrow 
and pointed , like unto the Flowers of the Englifh 
Colchicum, or Meadow Saffron, 0/0 whitifh yellow 
dun color , with fix long Threads in the middle. The 
green Leaves are long and broad , and broad-pointed. 
Some are of Opinion, that this Plant comes nearer to 
the Refemblance of an Hyacinth 0/ <z Daffodil ; 
but Lobel has numbered it among the Daffodils, wfoorz 
wo here follow, yet leave it to others Judgments to 
determine of which kind it is. 
V. The third, or African Sea, has a Root very 
great, made as it were of many fcaly Cloves, from 
whence rifes up a fmall fhort Stalk, bearing, a little 
above the Ground, two fair , broad, green, pointed 
Leaves , longer than they are broad, fo encompaffing 
the Stalk at the bottom, that it feems to run through 
them : the Stalk is fpotted with divers difcolored 
Spots, and is bare or naked from thefe two Leaves 
unto the top, where it bears one fair double Flower, 
like unto a Double Anemone, of a diluted reddifh 
color, tending to a blufh, with many Threads fet a- 
bout the middle Head. 
VI. The fourth , or Strange Sea Daffodil, has a 
Root which is very great , yet like unto other Great 
Daffodils •, the outward Skins of which are of a dark 
brown color. From this Root rife up five or fix large 
and long Leaves, of a pale green color •, from among 
which arifes up a Jlrong and large Stalk, bearing at 
top, out of a thin Husk or Skin, many very large 
Flowers, tnade of fix long and pointed Leaves apiece, 
cf a blewifh purple color, with a large round open 
Cup in the middle, of a J, adder color than the 
Leaves. 
VII. The Places. The firfl was found by the Sea 
fide in the Ifle of Sardinia, and on the high Moun- 
tains alfo of the fame Ifle , where it has born ( by 
Report) thirty five Flowers upon a Stalk : it grows 
alfo about Illyricum , and other Maritine places of 
the Mediterranean. The fecond grows in the upper 
part of Hifpaniola in the Weft Indies. The third 
grows near the Cape of Good Hope, from whence it 
was brought into Holland. The lajl , the place of 
its Origin is unknown, but now they are all nou- 
rilh’d up in Gardens. 
VIII. The Times. The firfl fprings later out of 
the Ground than any other Daffodil, viz. about the 
latter end of March or beginning of April, and 
flowers in the end of May or beginning of June ■, 
and the Seed is ripe in the end of July or beginning 
27 9
