This fendeth forth from one root many round greene ft trailing, ioynted, fmall branches, about 
afoot long : the leauts are of a light greene colour, and grow at cueryioint one, fomewhat like 
the leaues of great Sorrell, but they are round topped without barbes or eares below, or any rnani- 
feft tafte or fmel!,very like the leaues of Beets, but much fmaller : the floures grow cluftering toge- 
ther about the ioints,and at the tops of the branches fmall and greeniftr,each floure containing fine 
or fix very ftnallblunt topped leaues,andafew duftie chines in the middle : which part, there com- 
meth great prickly ihriuelled fesd,growing euen clofe to the root, and vpwards on the joints, each 
feed hailing three fliarpe prickes at the top growing fide-waies, which indeed may be more proper- 
ly called the huske-which huske in the in-fide is of a darkc reddifh colour,and containeth one feed 
in forme like the feed of Flos Adonis , round at the lower end, and cornered towards the top, and ftiarp 
pointed, couered oner with a darke yellowifh skin* which skin pulled away, the kernel] appeareth 
yellow on the outfide,and exceeding white within, and will with a light touch fall into very fmall 
pouderlike meale. 
G eranij Bxticx J[>ccies Body. 
This hath at the beginning many broad leaues, indented about the edges,fomwhat diuided, like 
thofeof Geranium Creticum,but ofa lighter greene colour, and fmaller : amongft which o r ow vp 
many round hairy kneed trailing branches, diuided into many other branches, bearing leaues like 
the former, but fmaller, and no more diuided.The floures are fmal like thofe of Geramrn Uofchatum . , 
but ofa deeper reddiflr colour, each floure hailing fine fmall round topped leaues: after followeth 
fmall long hairie feed, grow ing at the lower end ofa (harpe pointed beak like that of Geranium Mof- 
ebatum: the whole plant perifbeth when the feed is ripe. 
Bodies a Low-countrey man gathered the feeds hereof in Bstica a part of S paine, and imparted 
them to M '.William Coys, a man very skilfull in the knowledge of Simples, who hath gotten plants 
thereof, and of infinite other ftrange herbes,and friendly gaue me feeds hereof, and of many other. 
Anno, 1620. 
Antirrhinum minus flore Linarix luteum inferiftnm. 
This hath at the firft many very fmall, round, fmooth branches from one root, traylingon the 
ground, about foure or flue inches long,fet with many fmall greene fliort (harp pointed leaaiesjike 
thofe of Serf Ulum, but that thefe are longer, fmooth, and three or foure growing oppofite one a- 
gainft another: amongft which rife vp fine or fix, fometimes ten or twelue vpright round fmooth 
little (talks a cubit high, diuided into branches bearing fmall long fmooth greene leaues, growing 
without order,as narrow as the vpper leaues of oenantbe Angnfiifolia : at the toppes of the (talks and 
branches grow cluftering together fine fix or more fmall yellow floures , flouring vpwards, leauing 
a long (pike of very fmall huskes, each huske hailing a fmall line or chinke as though two huskes 
were ioined together,the one fide of the huske being a little longer than the other, wherein is con- 
tained exceeding fmall blackifh feed .The root is very fhort, fmall, and white, with a few threds,and 
perifheth at winter. 
Th is plant is not written of that I can finde.I receiued feed thereof from M r . William Coys often 
remembred. 
Linaria minor xjliua. 
The ftalkes are round, fmooth, ofa whitifh greene colour, a foot high, weake, not able to (land 
vpright: whereon grow long narrow fharpe pointed leaues, moft commonly bending or turning 
doivnewards. The floures grow in fpikesat thetoppesof the branches, yet not very neere to°e- 
ther,and areverie fmall and yellow, with a fmall tayle : the feed of this plant is fmall, flat 
and of a blackifh gray colour, inclofed in fmall round huskes, and you (hall commonly haue 
at one time floures and ripe feed all on a ftalke. The whole plant is like to the common Linaria 
but that :t is a great deale lefler.and the floures are fix times as fmall, and perifh at Winter. I alio 
receiued feeds thereof from M‘. William Coys.
