T lie Vcrrzzts,

Touching the vertues hereof, it is found out by ex-l periment of ferric ofthe later Phylitians, that the de- coéiion of the roots of this yellow Daffodil do purge by liege tough and ﬂegrnatick humors, and alfo wate- rifh, and is good for them that are full of raw humors, efpecially if there be added thereto a little anife feed and Ginger,which will corretft the churlifh hardneﬂé ofthe working.

The diltilled water of Daffoclils doth cure the pal-’ ﬁe, if the Patient be bathed and rubbed with the fayd liquor by the fire. It hath been proued by an efpeciall and truﬂry friend ofmine; man learned,and a diligent fearcher of nature,M‘ Nico/as Beljzmfomrime o f Kings Colledge in Cambridge.

Here are be {ides the forementioned forts of Dalfodils,fundry othersforne of which may be referred to them,0ther fome not. I do not intend an exarils enumeration ofthem, it beings thingnot fo ﬁt fora hiﬂorie of plants, as for a Florilegie, or boioke offloures. Now thofe ' that require all their figures,and more exaét defcriptions,may ﬁnnde full fatisfaéiion in the late X/Vorke of my kinde friend Mrloén Parkmfora, which is intituled P4rzza'zﬁ;r tcrrtyiris: for in other 1?" lorilegies,as in that of De Bry,Swertz,8ze. you haue barely the names and ﬁgures, but in this are both ﬁgures and an exaét hiﬂorie or declaration of them. Therefore I in this place will but onely briefely clefcribe and name Tome of the rareft that are preferued in our choice gardens 9 and a few others whereof yet they are not poﬂ'eﬂ"ed.
