The fmalleror ﬁnerleafed double Marigold groweth vpright, hauing for the-moi’: part 003 Rem or fat fpongeous Ptalke, garnilhed with fmooth and ﬂat leaues confufedly. The flourcs stow at the top ofthe {mall branches,very double, but leffer than the other, con lifting of more Em’ J33‘ gednelTe,and of a latte yellow gold colour. The root is like the precedent. C The Globeﬁouring Marigold hath many large broad Ieaues tiling immediately forth 0: the ground ., among which rifeth vp a ﬁalke of the height of a cubit, diuiding it felfe toward the top into other fmaller branches, fet or garnifhed with the lilteleaues,hut confufedly, or wirlioiii order. The floures grow at the tops of the Ptall<es,very double 5 the fmall leaues whereof are fat 1“ comely order by certaine rankes or rowes,as fundry lines are in a Globe,trauerﬁng the whole com‘ palfe of the fame 5Wl1€I'ClJpOlllt tooke the name oréimlam. 5 The fifth fort of double Marigold differeth not from the laft defcribed, fairing in the C0l°”’ of the Homes 5 for this plant bringeth forth Homes of a ﬁraw or light yellow colour,~and the oth€f5 not fo, wherein confifieth the difference. T

1: All thefe ﬁne here defcribed,and which formerly had {'0 many ﬁgures,differ nothing but ind

the bigneffe and littleneffe of the plants and ﬂoures,and in the intenfent-{Te and remifnelfe ofthe“ colour,which is either orange,yellow,or of a Ptraw colour. ll:

6 The Marigold with ﬁngle ﬂoures differeth not from thofe with double ﬂoures, but in $173’; it conﬁﬂeth of fewer leaues, which we therefore terme ﬁngle, in comphrifon of the reﬁt, and that malteth the difference. T .

7 This fruitfull or much bearing Marigold is likewife called of the vulgar fort ofwom¢-’“- Iacke-an-apes on horfe baCkC= it hath leaues,ftall<es, and roots like the common fort of Marigol 2 dilfering in the {hape of his f1ours,for this plant doth bring forth at the top of the {ialke one ﬂ0}”€ like the other Marigolds 5 from the which {tart forth fundry other fmall ﬂoures, yellow likewll-"2 and of the fame fafhion as the ﬁrlt, which if I be not deceiucd comrneth to palfe per accidrm, or chance, as Nature oftentimes liketh to play with other floures, or as children are borne with W9 thumbes on onehand,and fuch like,which liuing to be men, do get children like vnto others ; 695“ 1'0 is the feed of this Marigo1d,which if it be fowen,it brings forth not one Home in a thoufand like the plant from whence it was taken.

8 The other fruitfull Marigold is doubtleife a degenerate kind, commin g by chance from the feed of the double Marigold, whereas for the rnoﬂr part the other commeth ofthe feed ofthe ﬁnglc ﬂoures,wherein conliﬁeth the difference. 1: The ﬂoure of this(wherein the only difference C°“‘ ﬁﬁs) you {hall ﬁnde expreﬂ at the bottome of the fourth ﬁgure. 1: d - T A T l 4 9 The Al pith or mountaine Mafigol 1’ which Lobclim fetteth downe for :z\{4m'M 6’; ‘ rim, or P/mtago t/ilpzm, is called by Ta:’ve””“ 7ﬂ071tdﬂtM,Cd[t/.74, or Calendula t,1lpz‘mz:aﬂd bf; caufe I fee it rather refembles a Mafigfﬂ ’ than any other plant, I haue not thought 1‘ 4’ milfe to infer: it in this place, leauiﬂg the conlideration thercofvnto the friendly Re?‘ der, or to a further conﬁderation, becallf? ‘t is a plant that I am not well acquainted W“ -' all -, yet I do reade that it bath a thicke T00" gr0WiUg 311096 vnder the vpper cruﬁ Of lb: earth, of an aromaticall or fpicie tal’t€a_“” fomewhat biting, with many threddy l’“‘“g§ annexed thereto: from which ' rife VP b -03 thicke and rough Ieaues of an ouerworn gree” colour, not vnlike to thofe of Plantaine= 3‘, mong which there rifeth vp a rough and ' der ﬂalke fer with the like leaues :01! the I? wherofcommeth forth a fingle yellow 5°“ ’ p_al€d about the edges with {mall Ieaues Ohc _ 1181" Yellow, tending to a ﬁraw colour 5 file ___ , _ ,3 . . middle of the Home is compofed Ofa W." -n ,3’’:;%vf/»f], ,‘ V _ Ofthfedsrthicke thruﬂ together, fuch as is 11‘ '5////_ _, ’ i “ the middle of the ﬁeld Dailie,ofa d€€P‘3 Ye '
