Nafiurtium aquaticum. Water Creffes. 
Doe diflinguifo betweene Stum and Nafiurtium aquaticum,is Bautin* and Gefuermhertjs doe, hoi- 
feiCln to ding them to be differing kindes of plants and not jpec.es ejufdem generu, and therefore entreate of 
fg) M them in lcverail placets 1 alfo mult doe in feverall Chapters,and Ipeake ofthofe forts, that for their 
ten fcp likeneffe unto Cardamon ,Creffes may be called WApr W»», Cardamon euudron Nafiurtium aqua,,. 
cun : for of the Cardaminesywhich are Field CrefTes, I have entreated in the feventh ClafGs of this 
Worke, one ofwhofe figures I give you here to (hew their difference. 
1. Nafiurtium aquaticumvulgarc, Common Water Creflcs* 
Our ordinary Water Creffes f preadcch forth with many weake hollow fappy ftalkes,(hooting out hbres at the 
joynts and upward long winged leaves, made of fundry broad fappy and aimed round leaves, of a ^ownifh 
Pieene colour, the (lowers are many and white,(landing on long footedalkes,after which come (mail yellow feed 
contained in Lit long pods like homes, the whole plant ab.deth grecne in the Winter, and tadeth fomewhat hot 
and (harpe like Creffea. , rc. 
2. Najlnrtittm aquaticum Italicum. Italian water Orellcs, . 
This differeth little from theformer.but in that the Qalkeis creded.the lcavesarecut in a little hcreand there 
on the edges,and dented, fomewhat refembling Patfley leaves,and in the tadc of both herbe and feede,morc mild 
and plealant.therootelikewifecreepeth not as the others. . 
>. Nafiurtium aquaticnm amarum. Bitter Water Creilcs. 
This fort groweth greater then the firft,with longer and more pointed lcaves/when it runneth up to Kalke, but 
thefird leaves are very large and round, little differing elfe from the forme, but is fo extieame bitter in tade, 
that none can a way with it to cate it.unleffe it be boy led in water,and folded agawe into other frcfoboyling wa¬ 
ter, to take away the bitterncfle, and fo iome doc cate it t this is often found growing in Cam am, as Thai,,, 
faith, with the former, and knowne afunder by the greatneffe. n k 
a. Nafiurtium aquaticumminui. Swecte duelling Water Crcfles. 
This fmall Water Creffe hath a fmall long white roote.with fome fibres thereat, from whence fpnne fundry 
winged leaves made of many much (mailer then the former, and fomewhat long With the fmallrefle, duelling 
reafonable well: the (hikes have divers white flowers upon them like unto the C«-<<0w»!»,but (mailer by much; 
the feedes are like in fuch (lender pods and of the fame tade. 
cfbetlacmATimt, 
All thefegrow in the fmall (landing waters for the mod part,ytr fometimes in (mall rivulets ofrunning water: 
they flower and feede in the beginning of Summer. 
The Names. , 
The fird is generally taken to be the Sifimhrium alterum of Diefsotide r,w bicb a* he faith, feme called Si urn, and 
others Cardominc,being Cv like in tade thereunto, Mattkiohu, Cefalpimu, indTadtrmtvtanu call it, tjqrr. num 
aquaticum.
