===Of the Violet===

The ''Violet'' is in two kindes: white & purpled. His best goodnesse is in a sweete kinde of seml, & especially that ''Violet'' which groweth (as we saide before) in ''Cirena''. Some say that there is a kinde of ''Violet'' lyke Honie. Looke howe much more effectuous or good in working this his flowre is: so much the more it is saide to holde downe his head, and to bow and bende his bodie downward, to the earth.
