ing a number of fmall Flowers, of a reddifh or faint 
reddilh blew Color. 
V. The fifth , or Limonade with indented Leaves, 
or Spanifh Sea Marlh Buglofs. It has a long ], lender 
Root , with fome jew fibres adjoining. From the 
Head of which Root fpring forth long green Leaves, 
lying fpread upon the Ground, being alio deeply 
linuated or indented on both lides, and fomewhat 
rough. From among thefe Leaves grow up the 
Stalks, welted with {lender indented Skins : to- 
wards their tops they are divided into feyeral 
Branches, after the manner of the Ordinary Kind ■, 
but thefe Branches are alfo vyinged, and at the tops 
they carry Flowers, fome four, five, fix, or moie 
cluttering together, confifting of one thin, crifp, or 
crumpled Leaf, of a light blew Color, (which con- 
tinues long, if you gather them in their perfett Vi- 
gor, and lb dry them ) and in the midft of this 
blew, comes up little white Flowers, confilting of 
five little round Leaves, with l'ome white Threads 
in the middle. 
VI. Or thus, as Parkinfon deferibes it. This 
Limonade of Kauvvolfius, has a Root which is fmall 
and long , and blackifh on the out fide, pcrijhtng at 
the firf! approach oj Winter, from this Root fpring 
forth many long , narrow , and fomewhat rough Leaves , 
lying upon the Ground , waved or cut in on both fdes 
like an Indenture , fomething like the Leaves oj Ce- 
terach or Spleen-wort : among which rife up two 
or three Stalks, fomewhat rough alfo, and with 
thin Skins like Wings, indented on both fides there- 
of alfo, like the Leaves, having three fmall, long, 
rough, and three-fquare Leaves at every Joint, 
where it branches forth-, at the tops whereof Rand 
many Flowers, upon their Foot-ftalks, in fuch a 
manner as is not leen in any other Plant : for altho’ 
that fome of the fmall winged Foot-ftalks, are 
Ihorter and fome longer, Handing as it were flat- 
wife, or all on one fide, and not round like an Um- 
ble, yet are they even at the top, and not one high- 
er than another -, each of which fmall Foot-ltalks 
do bear four or five greenifh Heads or Husks, join- 
ed together y out of each of which do arile other 
pale or bleak blew ftiff Husks, as if they were 
Flowers, made as it were of Parchment, which 
hold their Color after they are dry, a long time. 
And out of thefe Husks likewile do come (at feve- 
ral times one after another, and not all at one time, 
or together) white Flowers, confiiling of five fmall 
round Leaves, with fome white Threads in the 
middle. After thefe Flowers are paft, there come 
in their places i'mall long Seed, enclofed in many 
Husks, many of thole Heads being unfruitful, or 
not yielding any good Seed, but Chaff, efpecially 
in our Country, for want of a fufficient Heat of the 
Sun. 
VII. The P laces. The firft grows in feveral 
Marlhes and moilf places in Kent , as is related in 
Cap. 97. Sell. 8. aioregoing. The fourth grows up- 
on the Chalky Clift' going from the Town of Mar- 
gate in Kent , down- to the Sea fide, on the left 
Hand. The fifth was firft obferved by Rauwolfius at 
Joppa in Syria : it grows alfo on the Coatts of Bar- 
bary, and Cadiz in Spain , from whence it has been 
brought to us, and is now nurfed up in our Gar- 
dens. 
VIII. The Times. They meft ufually flower in 
June and July , and yield their ripe Seed the„next 
Month after. 
IX. The Qualities, Specification , Preparations , 
and l Irtues , are much the fame with thofe of the 
firft Kind, which we have declared at large in Cap.

CHAP. CCCCXLVI. 
Of LION S-F OOT, 
0 R , 
LION S-C UDWEED. 
Called alfo , 
Mountain C O T T O N-W EED. 
I. '“T"' 1 H E Karnes. It is called in Greek, Am-n-m- 
1 in Latine , Leontopodium , and 
Cemos or Camos ■, and in Englijh , Lions-foot , Lions 
Cudweed , and Mountain Cotton-weed , or Cudweed . 
Some affirm, That the Title ok Leontopodiunt is not 
found in fome Coppies of Diofcorides , but only Ce- 
ntos or Camos •, but by that it may appear, that Le- 
ontopodium and Cemos are one and the fame thing 
which latter Name you may alfo find in Pliny, lib . 
27. cap. S. where he fpeaks of Catenancc, which 
was only ufed about Love Matters. 
II. The Kinds. This Plant is certainly a Species 
of the Cudweeds or Cotton-weeds • tho* various Au- 
thors fpeak varioufly of the Plant to which the 
Name Leontopodium properly belongs, or which 
Ihould be the right •, fome accounting one Plant, 
and fome another, and fome none, to which it has 
been yet applied. Lonicerus has his Leontopodium , 
which is the Echium fcorpoides palufire Bauhint, or 
the Mypfotis fcorpioides Lobelij. Apuleius, JPjius, 
and 0 rib afi us, will have it to be Leontopetalon, or 
Lion-leaj but that it is not, however ior Satisfa- 
ction fake, we will deferibe that Plant in the third 
place of this Chapter. Clufius ( from Jofephus dc 
Cafabona ) applied it to fome of the Holo (l turns or 
Sea Plant anes, by the Name of Leontopodium Crcti- 
enm , Tfcb-Ch ^ alio far from the true thing. Bauhi- 
nus fixes Herb for the true Leontopodium Diofcc - 
rides, but with Lugdunenfis, thinks Pliny his Leon- 
topodium to be much differing from that of Diofco- 
rides, and that thofe of Matthiolus , Lobel, and o- 
thers, are only Kinds of Gnaphalium or Cudweed, 
as we here determine them. Brunfelfius makes our 
Alchymilla or Ladies-Mantle to be it, as is hinted 
in Cap. 421. aforegoing, but that is not the Leonto- 
podium Diofcoridis , nor any ways agrees with his 
Defcription of the Plant. 
III. The Kinds of this our Lions-foot. There are 
two forts which Authors have taken notice of, viz. 
1 . Leontopodium majus , Pes Leoninus major , The 
greater Lions-foot, or Mountain Cotton-weed. 2. 
Leontopodium minus, Pes Leoninus minor. Pcs Lc- 
oms minor. The lefler Lions-foot, or Mountain Cud- 
weed. 2. To thefe we add, ( tho 5 not of die Stock 
or Kindred ) for the Name fake, Aw-md-mro*, Le- 
ontopetalon folium Leonis, Lions-Leaf, Lion-leafed 
Turnep, and Black Turnep. This Apuleius and 
JEtius calls Leontopodium, but how truly, may be 
leen, if compared with the Defcription of the firft 
Kind of that Name. It is alfo called in Latine , 
Rapeium , Papaverculum, Brumaria, Semen Leoni - 
num, Pes Leoninus, and Pat a Leonis, but, very im- 
properly thefe three latter ^ the laft fave one, belong- 
ing to the firft and fecond aforegoing, .and the laft 
of all, to the Plant called Alchymilla, or Our Ladies- 
Mantle.

IV. The firft, or Greater Lions-foot, or Mountain 
Cotton-weed. It has a Root which is fmaN and long ,
