The Spasiards, faith Clufine, held another plant'to bé ‘Affragalus which anfwered thereto in the facuities, but differing in the forme of the roote, it had many {hort and hard hoarie ftalkes growing neare the pround, with {mall winged leaves like unto Cicereor Lentills, all hoaty likewife, and of an aftringent tafte: the flowers are finall, growingin thicke tufted heads, ofa blewifh purple co- lour: the roote,faith Cé#/ius is ufully but fingle,and rio way agreeing with the roote of Astragalus. 7. Aftragalus purpurens mountanus, The purple mountaine milke Vetch. This milke Vetch hath a great long wooddyroote, with fome fibres fet thereat, blackifh without, and white within, from whencerife many hard ftalkes, fomelying, as it were upon the ground, and others ftanding upright about halfea foote high the winged leaves that grow thereon are many, fmall and hoary, {till keéping an equall number, upon every foote {talke, fomewhat refembling the 4fragalus Syriacus but longer, the {talkes arenaked or bare of leaves from the middle upward, favinga few, that under the tuft of flowers acthetoppes are round, and atelike unto other Pulfes, ofan excellent purple colour, and the feede follow in {mall cods : it fowrethin May and Tune on the highhills ofSevena, but moft plentifully neere a {mall towne called (Mernes in the grove of wood next untoir, i#orto'de?, and che hills neereft thereto about ALompelier : it is utterly without any fharpe : tafte, and but onely a little faleifh thac can be felt. 8. edftragaloides s berbareorum, Bafe milke Vetch.
