1: in England (faith Camerzirim) there growes a certaine kinde of Lumiria, which hath mall)’ leaues,and {Ometirnes alfo fundry branches 5 which therefore Ihane caufed to be delineated, that other Herbarilts might alfo take notice hereof. Thus much Cizmerarim, Epz't.Mat.p. 644.where he giues an elegant ﬁgure of a variety hauing more leaues and branches than the ordinary, othervvifﬁ not differing from it. _

Amongllt thefe leaues there comes vp a fialke fat and juycic, bearing a greater tuft of ﬂoures or feeds (for I know not whether to call them) than the ordinary,but otherwifc very like thereto.
