followeth is like the ordinary fort, and fo is the roote, but fomewhat thicker and (hotter, andabideshas the

The Names.

and the wild fort of Succory is called oita emteit/eris fieri] bccaufe it is more bitter then the reft. Some take Hie- 
rac'utm and fome Laftttca [y faeflis to bee Sera or lntubttm fyhefire , but Matthiolm contefteth againft them, in 
Latine alio Cicheriumfjlvefire. Pliny lib.cap. 8 faith that this Intnbum fylvejlre or Picril or (,'ichorium erratic

Of the firfl with red flower; I finde Tragus (to note one that hath par lira candidum pdrtim rofeam flcrsm ar.d from 
him Batthinns) to make mention,and Thalitu in Harcyniafylva of that with white flowers: the fecond is called by
