The Names. 
It is called in Greeke Lvedfist Lycopfis, fic diLla 
1 ttt aliqui volant, quod'yatiliefoliorum (sir forum im - 
a pexa hirfuties pedem Lupinutn imitat, ve l fit ally, oh 
a radicle fufeum ex purpurea color cm a quo Lycopfis 
i derivatafuit• idefl, fufccdofive obfeuritas quadam, 
A qualis e{l diluculifummi or prime lucis, qua ortum 
,l Jolii pr£Cedit,vel vejpertini crepufculi,qu£ valgus in 
i Gallia inter cancm, CT luptim vocat ; fed alij melius 
\ Grverius at opinor a florum hiante figuraqua lupi 
\ fauces apertos nmulatur : fome as you have heard 
did take the fynoglojfum vulgare tobcit, a s Ru- 
l cllius and Pufchius ; in which opinion Matthiolut 
( faith, hehimfelfe was formerly, but afterwards 
j wasdiffwaded becaufe the roote was not red, but 
I in finding fault with them, hee himfelfe is repre- 
I bended by Tena and Label, I have given the fame 
I figure of Lycopfis, being not in flower for the Cyno~ 
glojfum oiDiofcvrides : D odonstus taketh the com¬ 
mon Bugloffe to be Lycspfis,md fo doth Lonicerus alfo,and faith that the Buglolfe in the warmer countries hath a 
redder roote;but herein furely he is much deceivedjfor the talle and propertie,as Cjalen faith,is nothing fo aflrin- 
gent in Bugloffe,as is in Lycopfis, v/hfircin it exceedeth Anchufa, whereof he maketh it the fourth fortjand befides, 
Diofcorid’s deferibeth Lycapjis purpurafeente fare, with a purplifli flower, but fo hath not Bugloffe, but blew, al¬ 
though the buds be fomewhat reddifh,before they be full open.The firft, as is faid,is Matthiolus his Cytiog/offum, 
whom Luodunenfis doth follow miDurrmtes Mo.Hodonaus, as is before faid, maketh our knowne Bugloffe to 
be the Lycapjis of Diafcorides, and calleth this Lycopfis Eckij altera fltecies. Lobcl and Pena in their Adverfaria cal' 
leth it Lycopfis vel Lycopfis degener Anchufa tsEgineta. Eaubinus doth call it Lycopfis (imply without more 
words, and he maketh his Lycopfis altera Anglica, to be it alfo, although Lobcl (he weth the difference: the latt 
is fet forth in the Appendix to Lugdunenfir, where hee (heweth that Rauwolfius, who found it, did account it a 
kindeof Cynoglojfum, and called it Lycopfis vera Viofcoridis. 
The Vertues . 
The roote of Wall Bugloffe boyled in oyle, healeth greene wounds fpeedily, and applied with Bariy flower 
hclpeth all inflammations, and St. Anthonies fire, and being anointed in convenient places, provoketh fweate. 
G<i/«inhisfixt Booke of Simples faith, that Lycopfis is cold and drie, and more aftringent than Anchufa, efpeci- 
allv the roote, and therefore is very good againft inflammations; it (laiechrheumes and fluxes, and the accede of 
hot and fliarpe humours to old fores, whereby they are hard to be cured. 
C HAP. XXII. 
Ornfma. Stone Bugloffe, 
forme and likeneffe of this plant with the former, and both with Anchufa, hath made me to 
i°yne it next to them, although the vertues hereof be not anfwerable unto them ; it hath many 
iHp li * on 8 at H narrow fmooth leaves lying upon the ground,not above a finger broad, but foure long, like 
unto thofe of the Idler Alkane:; this is faid by. Dio/corides to have a reddifh roote, and to be "with¬ 
out either ftalke flower or feede, which thing he faith likewife of Cynoglojfum and Lycopfis, which 
both have beene knowne in divers plants, to beare both flowers and feede,and therefore it is as probable in this, 
as in theiw. Matthiolus onely faith, that fuch a plant was brought untp him, with long leaves, and reddilh rootes 
hkethofeof Madder, and had neither ftalke norflower, which he thereupon tooke to be the right Ouofma noe 
knowing whether it had or would beare.
