Sweet-Oak.

Is an herb which perisheth yearly, and leaveth a seed which is as small as the Rose-campion seed. I cannot stand to describe every part of this herb, nor cannot speak of every particular in the observation of propagating of it, for I have already gone as far as my bounds, so I will only acquaint you with this, that is, you may sow it when you have sowed the seed of the herb before-mentioned, in the same manner, and preserve it with the same care.
