The fpotted Archangell is alfo very like the former, in the forme of the’leaves and flowers, but fomewhar 
'rowing it is lowet and more creeping : thechiefe differenre twin

This Archangell Column* hath well obferved to differ from the laft, firft in the leaves being lamJr and dented * 
about with rounder dents-, and then m the white lines therein, which in this runne ftraight forth, and fome- ■ 
what large on each fide the middle nbbe, and not fpotted or (leaked as in the laft, which white lines they wftl 1 
holdconlpicuous many yeares, after they have beene dryed, whereas theother, either fade altogether or are •

yellow Archangell, in the iquare (hikes, and large greene dented leaves, i s like the white Archangell 
but that the ftaikes are more ftraight and upright, not bending downewards, a n d the ioynts with leaves are 
more feparate in (under, having longer leave, than the former: the flowers alio arc a little larger and more ga¬ 
ping; of a faire yellow colour m molt, and in fome more faint: the rootes hereof Ihave not found to r 
under ground, {o much as the white, but elfe very like thereunto.

Strange Archangell. 
Thisftrange gaping Archangell, fhooteth forth in the 
beginning of the Spring, afquarc hayrie ftraight ftalke, a- 
bouta cubit high, at the joynts whereof, are let the leaves 
by couples, which are fomewhat long and deepely indented 
about the edges, of a fad greene colour, fmooth, and a little 
hayrie withall, (landing upon long hayrie footeflalkes: 
about the middle of the llalkecome forth divers branches 
on all (ides, about an hand breadth long, fet with narrower 
and longer pointed leaves, not dented at all; atthetoppes 
whereof and the flalkes (land long fpiked heads of purplifti 
Tlore a\- flowers, like unto the Archangells, before deferibed, and in 
bo > fome white, but longer and more open, two fometunes 
(landing in one huske, and with a hood or helmet at the 
head of them; wherein after they are fallen, areletfoure 
rough feedes, round and flat, very hayrie, clammie, and 
fweete, (licking to the fingers, while they are frefh •* at 
thetoppesof everyone whereof, there is a cleft likea 
mouth, and about that a crowne like unto an Helmet: the 
roote is yellowifli and Itringie not perifhing. 
The Place, 
All thefe Archangels grow wilde, fome of the firft forts 
by wall (ides, and the borders of fieldes, and way Tides, al- 
moft every where with us •* the yellow mod ufually in the 
wet grounds of Woods, and fometimes in the dryer, in di¬ 
ve rs Countries of this Land: thofc with white fpots and 
lines, are very rare to meetc with in ourKingdome, but the 
fift in Germany as Thalins faith, and in Italy as Matthiolm 
and Columna lay, very plentifully; the two forts of the 
(ixth in Naples onely as Columna laith- and the laft in Candy 
as Pona faith and in Naples as Columna faith. 
The Time . 
They flower from the beginning of the fpring, all the 
Sommer long. 
The Names, 
The name Lamium was firft takettfrom Pliny, who after he had fpoken of Nettles, faith that the Nettle that 
ftingeth not,and is not hurtfull, is called Lamium. Ids called Vr-ea rner Lumerd' T 7 ? ' ‘
