The Catterpillar of the Table, expreft to the 
Jiff, are great Lovers of green Garden Lettice, but will 
not ( like many other CatUrpiUars ') touch the Plant 
withered. 
This began its change the 8*. of 7«»e,in 
the Forme e^preffed. 
About the beginning o^AnguJl^ came forth a Butterfly^ 
hoary colour, having a long Stkige in his fore-head, or an 
extended which lived but one day falling, I knew 
not what to feed him with. 
But I have Obferved this kind of Butterfly to 
about Flowers, dipping that long Sting, or Tongue into 
theflowers,and fo to fuck outthe Honey, or fweet juice, 
notfetlingor lighting upon the Flower, but doing of it as 
they fly j for if they fetled, their Legs were two Ihortto 
fijffer them to ufe their Tongue ^ and this I take to be 
the cauft, of their conftant taking their nourifllmentin 
flight, and not alighting, or fetlingupon the flower. 
There is a fort of Gnatts^ bread in Trees, which in 
like manner are armed with long Stings, and can ule them 
filing, becaufe they Jiave long Feet, e4»ecially in the hind- 
moft feet, lb that he can fallen his Sting where, andhow^ 
he pleales j but the naturall Ihort feet of thefe Butterflyer^ 
hinder their feeding, fave when they are upon the Wing.
