and it is totally different from all that went before him. He takes

and yet his Sylfem makes one abfolutely necelfary, he has eftabliflaed 
three great divifions. 
I if, Ax external Cup only, which is the true one, and anfwers 
to the Gymnopolyfpermce. 
zdly. Ax Internal Cup only; this is really the Capfula; fo it takes

3dly, Exlernal and Internal together ; this comprehends the reft

^th, Florem Polypetalum. Umbelllfcras ; very 
well, if he had not joined Anemone, Pulfatilla, and Clematis. 
8th, Calice folum Interno ; the two firlf orders contain the Lil-
