HI. The Defcriptions. Tfe<? firft , ar Common 
Baftard Harts-Tongue, in its Roots, Leaves, and 
manner of growing, does very much refemble the for- 
mer firft , 0/’ True Harts-Tongue, both in form and 
color, but that the Leaf is fomewhat broader or lar- 
ger, and that the Leaves, being broadeft below, have 
a large hollow bowing, like unto an Half Moon, on 
each fide of the middle Rib, and the ftrakea on the 
backs of them are more Hoping- 
IV. The fecond, letter, or Barren Baftard Harts- 
Tongue, has a fmall thready Root like the jormer , 
quickly lathering its Leaves exceed not the breadth 
of three Fingers, not hard, nor rough, but fmooth 
and gentle, and without any marks on the back fides 
of them, yet with a hollow roundnefs at the bottom 
of them, as in the former, and befides fomewhat 
unevenly -dented about the edges: Clufius fays, that 
Lobel having fent him fome Plants of this Species , 
after that he had kept them in a Pot , becaufe of 
their tendernefs, in two Years time they changed 
their form into the* fagged Hartjhorn, at which he 
much wonder’d, for afterwards , (as he fays) when

Hands in the fame place the like Plants, which there 
held the form of Hemionitis , or Baftard Harts- 
Tongue. 
V. The third, or Strange Baftard Harts-Tongue,

Ear, or piece of Leaf, fet on each fide of the arched 
or hollowed bottoms.
