The Names.

IT is called in Greek 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉 Heleoselium from 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉 signifying a Marsh, and 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉 Apium, that is Parsly; because it is a kind of Parsly, growing natu∣rally in Marshy places, and for the same reason it is called in Latine Paluda∣pium, Apium Palustre and Apium rusticum. In Shops, it is called Apium absolutely, and without any addition, where they follow the Arabian Physitians, for the most part, who give it no other name but 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉 being a generall word, as Apium also is: some have thought fit to adde to each an Epithite to distinguish of what sort it is. In English, it is called Smallage and Marsh Parsly, for the rea∣son above mentioned.
