towards the end, and putting forth ftringy fibres on the fides. Thus much Clufiut, who receiued 
tins figure and defeription from his friend Iaques Plateau of Tournay. I conie&ure this to be the 
fame plant that Bemhine hath fomewhat more accurately figured and deferibed in his Prod. par. 68. 
vnder the title of ChondriUa purpurafeens feetida : which plant being an annual!, I haue leen growing 
fome yeares fince with M r . T ttggy at Wefttninfteis j and the laft Summer with an honeft and skil- 
full Apothecarie one M r . Nicholas Sivajton of Fcucrfham in Kent : but I mud confeife I did not 
compare it with Cluftus • yet now I am of opinion, that both theft figures and deferiptions are of 
one and the fame plant . It floures in luly and Auguft, at the later end of which moneth the feeds

. fj The Place. 
Thefe kinds of Hawke-weeds, according to the report of Clufms , do grow in Hungarie and Au- 
flria,and in the graify dry hills, and herby and barren Alpifh mountaines,andfuchlike places: 
notwithftanding if my memorie faile me not I haue feene them growing in fundry places in Eng- 
land ; which I meane, God willing, better to obferue hereafter, as opportunitie fhall ferue me. 
% The Time. 
He faith they floure from May to Auguft, at what time the feed is ripe. 
The Names. 
The Author himfelfe hath not faid more than here is fet downe as touching the names, fo that 
it fhall fuffiee what hath now been faid, referring the handling thereof to a further confideratiofi. 
The Nature and Venues . 
I finde not any thing at all fet downe either of their nature or vertues, and therefore I forbeare 
to fay any thing elfeofthem,asathingnotneceffarie to write of their faculties vpon my owne 
conceit and imagination.
