£ 2 In ltead of the Plantaine leaned red Lilly, dcfcribed and figured in this fecond place by 
out Author out of TtihernamontMusJoi that I iudge both the figure and defcription counterfeit, 
I hauc omitted them, and here giue you the many-floured red Lilly in his (lead. This hath a root 
like that of the laft deferibed, as alfo leaues and ftalkes ; the floure alfo in fhape is like drat of the 
former, but of a more light red colour, and in number of flouresit exceedeth the precedent, for 
fometimes it beares fixty floures vpon one ftalke. d 
f 5 This red Lilly is likevnto the former, but not fo tall ; the leaues be fewer in number, 
broader, and downy towards the top of the ftalke, where it beares fome bulbes. The floures in 
fhape be like the former, failing that the colour hereof is more red, and thicke dalht with blacke 
fpecks . The root is fcaly like the former. 
4 There is another red Lilly which hath many leaues lomewhat ribbed, broader than the laft 
mentioned, but fhorter,and not fo many in number. The ftalke groweth to the height of two cu- 
bits,and fometimes higher, whereupon do grow floures like the former : among the foot-ftalks of 
which floures come forth certaine bulbes or cloued roots,browne of colour, tendingvntored- 
nefle ; which do fall ih the end ofAugu ft vpon the ground, taking root and growing in the fame 
place’ whereby it greatly encreafeth, for feldome or neuer it bringeth forth feed for his propa- 
gation.

5 There is another fort of red Lillie hauingafaire fcaly or cloued root, yellow aboue, and 
browne toward the bottome ; from which rifethvp a faireftiffe ftalke creftedor furrowed , of an 
ouer-wornebrowne colour, fet from the lower part to the branches, whereon the floures doe grow 
with many leaues, confufedly placed without order. Among the branches clofe by the ftem grow 
forth certaine clones or roots ofareddifh colour, likevnto the clones of Garlicke before they are 
pilled : which being fallen vpon the ground at their time of ripenefle,do (hoot forth certaine ten- 
der firings or roots that do takehold of the ground, whereby it greatly encreafeth. The floures 
are in fhape like the other ted Lillies, but of adarke Orange colour, refembling a flame of fire fpot- 
ted with blacke fpots. 
6 This hath a much fhorter ftalke, beingbuta cubitorlefleinheight, with leaues blac- 
Gold-red Lilly.
