Transcriber’s Note

Inconsistent spelling (including of proper and botanical names, and including differences between the text and the index) and factual errors have been retained, except as listed below. Non-English phrases have not been corrected or individually commented upon either, except as listed below. The terms German and Dutch appear to be used interchangeably.

In several places an opening or closing quote mark is missing. Where it was clear where the mark should go, it has been inserted (see under Changes made). In other instances the correction has not been made.

Page 85, γξοκό-ςτπλθ: as printed in the source document; Fuller wrote χροκό-δειλος (possibly as an error for κροκό-δειλος).

Page 122-123, Footnotes 72 and 73: the source document has two identical footnote markers and but a single footnote. Both appear to be quotes from Parkinson.

Page 198-199, T’ajonte should be J’ajoute.

Page 207: Le Théâtre d’honneur et de Chevatries should be Le Théâtre d’honneur et de Chevalerie.

Changes made

Footnotes have been moved to the end of the section or paragraph, illustrations have been moved outside text paragraphs.

Minor obvious typographical an punctuation errors have been corrected silently.

Some ditto marks („) have been replaced with the dittoed text.

Some first paragraphs per herb were not indented in the source document, they have been indented in this text.
