As as to their Original, with thofe of an Apple or Pear, bothali C1 fuplikewife the Bruschery; but differently ramified. In Plums the Surpofe all) there are five main Ont-Bran hes, which run along four of them by face of the Stone from the Bafis to the point thereof, 1 Adil east n Ab ere Is ric ther In an a Apricot i ite to it. ne oppolite _one Ridge, and one by the other the fame number, but the fingle Brawch runsnot upon the Surface, but through the Body of the Stone. There are likewife two or three Ridge for fmaller Branches, which run in like manner under the other fomefpace, and then advancing into the Parenchyma, therein difperfe themfelves : Thefe latter fort in Peaches are numerous throughout. 6. . But notwithftanding the different difpofition of the Branches ofthe Fruits aforefaid 5 yet is there one Branch difpos'd in one and the fame manner in themall. The entrance hereof into the Stoneis at its Balis; from whence running throughits Body, and {till inclining or arching it felf towardsits Concave, is at laft, aboutits Cone, there> into emergent, where the Coats ofthe Seed are appendent to it. Of the seed-Branch‘tis therefore obfervable that after its entrance into the Fruit, ’tisalways prolonged therein to aconfiderable lengths as is feen not onlyin Apples, &c. where the Seed f{tands a good diftance from the Stalk; but in Plums likewife, where it ftands very near it 5 in that here the Seed-Branch, as is faid, never ftrikes through the stove into the Coats of the Seed dire@tly, but runs through a Chazel cut in the Stoze, till it iflues, near the Cove, into the Concave thereof. 7. §. The Stove though it feema fimple Body, yetit is compoundedof different ones. The Inner Part thereof, as it is by far the thinneft, f is it the moft denfe, white, fmooth and fimple. The Original is from the Pith; difficult, but curious to obferve: For the SeedBranch, not ftriking dire€tly and immediately quite through the Bufis of the Stove, but in the manner as is above defcribed, carries a confiderable Part of the Pith, nowgather’d round aboutit, asits Parenchyma, along with it felf; which uponits entrance into the concave of the Stove about its farther end, is there in part fpreadall overit, as the Lizing thereof. The outer and very much thicker Part, confifteth partly of the like Precipitations or concrete Particles, asin a Pears being gathered here much more clofely, not only to a Contiguity, but a Coalition into. one entire Stone 5 as we fee in Pears themfelves,efpecially towards the Cork , they gather into thelike Stoninef§; or as a Stone, Mineral, or Animal, is oftentimes the produé of accumulated Gravel. But as the Parenchyma is mixed with the Concretions in the Calculary, fois it alfo, though not vifibly, with thefe in the Stoze, the ground ofthe Stone being indeed a perfet& Pareuchyma 3 but by the faid Coxcretions fo fayalter’d, as to become dry, hard and undiftinguifhable from them. All which Particulars, are obfervable only im the feveral degrees of Growth in the youpg Fruit. And are reprefented in Tab. 4. But efpecially by the feveral Figures belonging to the Third and Fourth Parts of the Fourth Wook. Book I. = g. of Plants. nee NUT (to which an Akern isanalo gous ) there aré three general Parts, the Cap, Shel, and Pith, The Capi i of a Pilling and Parenchyma, derived from the ie and ae Barques Ranml e from the Lignows Body of the Branch. The Shell fikewife Is nceoe fimple Body, but compounded. The Superficial Part thereofis originated from the Pilling or Skiz of the Cap, from the infide whereof it is, in a Duplicature, produc’d and fpred over the Shel, Which, if you look at the Bafis of the Shel/,is farther eviden t: for that being con- tinuous with the Parexchyma of the Cap,without the interpo fure of the Skin, the faid fuperficial Partis there wanting. The thicker.atid inner Part of the Shell confift eth of the fame Parenchyma as that of the Ca with a Congeries ofPrecipitations filled Up, asin a Stowe. And as tbe Lignous Body is branched in a Stone, fo, with fome difference, in 4 Shell, The onter Branches or Rawmlets are numero us; each iffain out ofthe Parenchyma of the Cap, and entring the she// at the rence of its Bafis, and fo running bet wixt its fuperficia Civtaiep l and inner Parts towards the Cone, round about. The Ivner or Seed-Branch is fingle, entring in, asdothe other, at the Bafis of the shel/ but at the Center thereof: from whence it runs, not through the "Shell as in Plums through the Stone; but through the Pith, as far as the Cone where the Coats of the Seed hang appendentto it. The Pith whether derived fromi the fame part both in name and nature in and Stalk; or from the Cortical Body, 1 yet determi the Branch Parts of a Nut, See inthe Figures belongi ith Fourth ook. 9. §. . he Third 19 digato biet yDart ofthe Third ging to the Tae A BERRY, asa Goofeberry (to which Corinths , Grapes Hips, &c. are to be referr’d ) confifteth, befides the Seed, of the three general Parts, Pilling, Parenchyma and Branche ry, The Pilling 38 originated as in the foregoing Fruits. The Parenchyma is double as likewife in fome other Berries. Theouter is commonly. together withthe Pilling, calld the skim, and is that part wefpit out, being of a fourtaft. Nowas the Pilling is originated from the outer, fo this from the inner Part of the Bargue; and accord ingly the Pores thereof may be obfervedplainly ofa like fhape with thofe both of the Cortical Body and Pith. The Inner or Pulp is of a {weet tafte; and ié the Part we eat: It isof a Subftance fo laxe and tender, as it would feem to be only a thicker or jellied Juices althoug hthis likewife be a true Parenchyma, fomething like that of an Orange or Limon, with its Pores all fill’d up with Liquor. The Branch ery is likewife double : The Exterior runs betwixt the Pilling and Outer Parenchynia in arched Lines, from the Stalk to the Stool of the Flower . Thele outer Branches, though of various number at the Stalk, yet at ufually ten principal ones; five for the five Leaves the Cork are of the Flower, and five forthe Attire. The Inner main Branches are two, diametrically oppofite to ¢ ach other, and at the Cork with the other inofcul ated. From thefe two are branched other {maller, every one having a Seed appendentto it, whofe Coats it entreth by adoubl e Filament, one at the Baffs, the other at the Cone. Theyare all very white and turgent, and byaflaunt cut, may be obferv’d concav e; thus reprefenting theinfelves analogous to fo many true fpermat ich Veffels, “Fhe M 2 Parts |
