Description
Excerpt: ...which later Seaลฟon many prefer, the Sap of the Herb, tho' not in ลฟuch exuberance, yet as being then better concocted, and ลฟo render'd fit for Salleting, 'till the Spring begins a freลฟh to put forth new, and tender Shoots and Leaves. This, indeed, as to the Root, newly taken out of the Ground is true; and therefore ลฟhould ลฟuch have their Germination ลฟtopt the ลฟooner: The approaching and prevailing Cold, both Maturing and Impregnating them; as does Heat the contrary, which now would but exhauลฟt them: But for thoลฟe other Eลฟculents and Herbs imploy'd in our Compoลฟition of Sallets, 72 the early Spring, and enลฟuing Months (till they begin to mount, and prepare to Seed) is certainly the moลฟt natural, and kindly Seaลฟon to collect and accommodate them for the Table. Let none then conลฟult Culpeper, or the Figure-flingers, to inform them when the governing Planet is in its Exaltation; but look upon the Plants themลฟelves, and judge of their Vertues by their own Complexions.

I conceive therefore, a Prudent Perลฟon, well acquainted with the Nature and Properties of Sallet-Herbs, &c. to be both the fitteลฟt Gatherer and Compoลฟer too; which yet will require no great Cunning, after once he is acquainted with our Table and Catalogue. We purpoลฟely, and in tranลฟitu only, take notice...
