Amygdalae.

Story for Table-talke.

AMygdala the Greeke name, signifieth as much as the long Nut: some call it Nu∣lica.

It prospereth best in hot coun∣tries, and therfore better in Apulia and Sicily, then in Italy, Spaine or Fraunce.

The tree and fruite both much resemble the Peach: yet some∣what bigger.

Phillis was turned into an Al∣mond-tree, for telling tales out of schoole: euer sithence, it hath bene a by-word: an Almond for the Parrat: which least it be ap∣plied to me, I will leaue my pra∣ting.
