Transcriber's Note

Archaic spelling is preserved as printed.

Inconsistent hyphenation is preserved as printed.

Minor punctuation and accent usage errors have been repaired.

The following amendments have been made:

Page 56--theee amended to thee--"... and it shale make
thee light and merrie."

Page 66--the footnote marker for note 53 was omitted. The
transcriber has added it in what appeared to be the
appropriate place.

Page 67--B. amended to M.--"... and Mr. H. M. Barlow[2]
supports the deduction that ..."

Page 104--Zouch amended to Zouche--"Lord Zouche sent him
rare seeds from Crete, Spain and Italy."

Page 178--presumaby amended to presumably--"Lady Sedley,
the first owner, and presumably author of the book, ..."

Page 234--+PHYTOBASANOS+ originally had a roman C as the
final letter. This has been amended.

The following items were of note:

Page 197--the word 'me' in "Agnus castus ys an herbe that
me clapys Tustans or Porke levys" may be a typographic
error for m[=e]. As it is quoted material, and the
transcriber has been unable to confirm one way or the
other, it has been preserved as printed.

Page 226--it appears that the word 'cetera' has been omitted
following a Tironian et. This has been preserved as
printed--"1484. Herbarius Maguntie impressus. Anno [et]
CLXXXIV."

The frontispiece has been moved to follow the title page. Other illustrations have been moved where necessary so that they were not in the middle of a paragraph.
