Round leaned Bell-floure. 
t 4 Campanula lutea linifolia. 
Yellow Bell-floure. 
5 Campanula minor alba, fme purpurea. 
Little white or purple Bel-floure. 
5 The little white Bell-floure is a 
kinde of vvilde Rampions,as is that which 
foIIoweth,and alfo the laft laueone be- 
fore defcribed. This fmall plant hath a 
Render root of the bignelfe of a fmall 
flraw,with fome few firings anexed there- 
to f he leaues are fbmvvhat long,fmooth, 
and ofa perfedl greene colour, lying flat 
vpon the ground : from thence rife vp 
fmall tender ilalkes, fet heere and there 
with a few leaues. The floures grow at 
the top, of a milke white colour. 
6 The other fmall Bell-floure or 
* wilde Rampion differeth not from the 
precedent but onely in colour of the 
floures • for as the others are white, thefe 
are ofa bright purple colour, which fets 
forth the difference. 
t 7 Befides thefe here defcribed, 
there is another very fmall and rare Bell- 
floure, which hath notbeene fet forth by,\ 
any but onely by Bauhine, in his Prodromy a '' M - 
vnder the title of Campanula Cjmbalarixfo- \yiXvu 
lijs , and that fitly ; for it hath thinne and 
fmall cornered leaues much after the ma- 
ner of Cymbalaria , and thefe are fet with- 
out order on very fmall weake and tender 
Ilalkes fome handfull long; and at the 
tops of the branches grow little fmall and 
tender Bell-floures of a blew colour. The 
root, like as the whole plant, is very fmall 
andthreddy. This pretty plant was firft 
difcouered to grow in England by Mailer 
George Bowles, <^Anno 1632. who found it 
in Montgomerie (hire, on the dry bankes 
in the high-way as one rideth from Dol- 
geogg a WorfhipfuII Gentlemans houfe 
called M r . Francis Herbert, vnto a market 
towne called Mahuntleth, and in all the 
way from thence to the feafide. Itmay 
be called in Englilh , The tender Bell- 
floure. $
