i Hyjfopia Vulturis ,Common garden Hyfope 
The common garden Hyfope is fo well knownetoall that 
have a garden, or that have beeneina garden,, that I (halibut 
feeme attttm cutere fa bellow my time in Jefcribing it to be a final 
bulhy plant, that rifeth up more than a foot high; with many 
wooddy branches, but tender; at the tops whereof are fet at 
certaine diftauces, fundry fmall long and narrow greene leaves : 
at the tops of the ftalkes (land blewifh purple gaping flowers,in 
fpiked heads one rowe above another : after which follow the 
feed,which is fmall and blackilh : the roote is fomewhat wood¬ 
dy with many threddy firings: the whole plant is of a ftrong 
fweete lent.

fope, and golden or yellow Hyfope. 
Thefe two forts of Hyfope are both of the fame kinde with 
the common Hyfope, but differre onely in the party colouring of 
the leaves; the white having diverfe leaves parted white and 
greene in the tnidft, and fome all or molt part white, and fome 
wholy greene, or with fome ftripes in the greene : for all theft 
forts are feene together upon one Plant. The golden or yellow 
forr,hath the uppermoft leaves ufually wholly yellow in the dim¬ 
mer time, parted with greene; the lower leaves often abiding 
without difcolouring-

This Ruffet Hyfope alio differeth from the former in no other 
chiefe matter, than in the colour of the leaves, which are of a 
grayifn or afh colour, which fome call Ruffet; this is likely to be
