PREFACE.
The reprint of the “ Names of Herbes,” by William Turner,
which is now offered to the Members of the English Dialect
Society, renders easily accessible a rare and interesting little book.
It appeals to many classes of readers, and although not strictly a
Dialect work, it has sufficient connection with the objects of the
Society to justify its appearance among our publications. It forms
a fitting companion to the “ Dictionary of English Plant-names ; ”
it will interest those who study the history of cultivated plants,
inasmuch as it is the earliest authority to which the introduction of
certain plants can be traced ; and to the botanist it will be especially
useful, inasmuch as it embodies a careful attempt to identify the
species recorded with their modern synonyms.
I have divided the work into three parts, which I may briefly
define. The first is an exact reprint of the work, the only alter-
ations being in the pagination, and of the insertion at the foot of
each page of the “fautes escaped in the printyng,” which will be
found collected (as in the original) at p. 90. The original pagination
is indicated at the bottom of each page of the reprint, where I have
also occasionally placed, in square brackets, a correction of certain
other errata, which escaped the notice of Turner when he drew up
his list of “fautes.” The second part consists of a list, alphabetically
arranged, of the English names given by Turner (whether invented
by him or in actual popular use), each name being followed by (1) its
modern scientific equivalent, (2) the Latin heading under which
Turner places it, and (3) the page of the reprint on which it will be
found. I say “the Latin heading ” rather than the Latin name, because
VI
Turner often includes several different plants under the same head-
ing ; hut I have thought this plan the easiest for facilitating refer-
ence. A few blanks will be found in the second column; they
indicate that I have been unable to ascertain satisfactorily the modern
name of the plants to which Turner alludes. The third part is an
index, similar to that in the “ Dictionary of English Plant-Names,”
in which the modern Latin names of the plants are given in alpha-
betical order, followed by the various English ones by which they
are mentioned in the body of the work. In this way I hope I have
rendered the information contained in the “Names of Herbes”
available for the use of all who may wish to obtain it.
Many dialectal names find a place in the work : e. g. for
Northumberland, Speregrass (p. 24), Lucken gollande (p. 26), New
Chapel flower (p. 58), Eldens (p. 61), and Redco (p. 78); for
Durham, Speknel (p. 53); for Yorkshire, Cudweed (p. 25); for the
North Bracon (p. 38), and Crawtees* (p. 43) ; and for Cambridge-
shire, Whin (p. 73), and Waybent (p. 43). I have not attempted
to arrange or correct the French and German names ; but in the
English Index I have taken some trouble to spell both Turner’s
English and Latin titles as he himself writes them.
That the work is useful in fixing the date of the introduction of
certain plants to English gardens is clear, from the fact that it stands
at the head of the books cited by Aiton in the “ Hortus Kewensis ”
(ed. ii. , p. x). Many British plants also date their record as natives
of this country from this little volume. From these records, as well
as from the names which he gives as then in actual use, we can
trace Turner’s travels in various parts of England, as well as on the
continent.
It is unnecessary to enter into any account of the life and works
of William Turner, as a full account of both will be found in
Mr. B. D. Jackson’s preface to his reprint (issued in 1877) of the
“ Libellus ” — Turner’s first work ; — as well as in Trimen and Dyer’s
“Flora of Middlesex” (published in 1869), pp. 364 — 369. He was
born at Morpeth in Northumberland between 1510 and 1515, went
to Pembroke Hall, Cambridge, and became Fellow of that College in
1531. He afterwards took up the religious views which were then
Vll
becoming prominent, and went through a series of vicissitudes which
are duly chronicled by Mr. Jackson. He was a prolific writer, many
of his works being directed against the Catholic Church, and ex-
hibiting the heated controversial tone characteristic of the period in
which he lived. Like many other controversialists, he was not
always very particular as to the accuracy of his accusations — an
example of this will be found in the note upon “ Palm ” in the
“ Dictionary of English Plant-Names.” He died in 1568.
I may perhaps be allowed to draw attention to the fact that the
“ house of Syon,” where the “ Names of Herbes ” was prepared, is
within a mile of the place where this Preface is written ; and that
the Protestant author of 1548 is introduced to the reading public by
a Catholic editor in 1882. “Thus the whirligig of Time brings
in his revenges.”

Inacertain litle bokewiche I set furth, iiii yeres ago and
somthynge more, which I dedicated vnto the Kynges
Grace that nowe is I promised that if I perceyued that
he woulde take in good worth that litle treaties, to set furth
an herbal & an other boke also of fishes. Partly to fulfyl
this my promise streight way after, I began to labour 1to
make vp a latin herbal, whiche thynge I haue finished ii
yeres ago, but when I had inteded this yere to haue set it
furth, & axed the aduise of Phisicianes in thys matter, their
aduise was that I shoulde cease from settynge out of this
boke in latin tyll I had sene those places of Englande,
wherein is moste plentie of herbes, that I might in my
herbal declare to the greate honoure of our countre what
numbre of souereine & strang herbes were in Englande that
were not in other nations, whose counsell I haue folowed
deferryng to set out my herbal in latin, tyl that I haue sene
the west contrey, which I never sawe yet in al my lyfe, which
countrey of al places of England, as I heare say is moste
richely replenished wyth al kindes of straunge and wdderfull
workes & giftes of nature, as are stones, herbes, fishes and
metalles when as they that moued me to the settyng furth
of my latin herbal, hearde this so reasonable an excuse they
moued me to set out an herbal in Englishe as Fuchsius dyd
in latine wyth the discretions, figures and properties of as

many herbes, as I had sene and knewe, to whom I could
make no other answere but that I had no such leasure in
this vocation and place that I am nowe in, as is necessary
for a ma that shoulde take in hande suche an interprise.
1 But thys excuse coulde not be admitted for both certeine
scholars, poticaries, and also surgeans, required of me if that
I woulde not set furth my latin herbal, before I haue sene the
west partes, and haue no leasure in thys place and vocation
to write so great a worke, at the least to set furth my iudge-
met of the names of so many herbes as I knew whose
request I haue accoplished, and haue made a litle boke,
which is no more but a table or regestre of suche bokes as I
intende by the grace of God to set furth here after, if that I
may obteine by your graces healp such libertie & leasure
with a coueniet place, as shall be necessary for suche a
purpose.
Thys litle boke coteineth the names of the moste parte
of herbes, that all auncient authours write of both in Greke,
Lattin, Englishe, Duche and Frenche, I haue set to also
the names whiche be comonly vsed of the poticaries and
comon herbaries. I haue tolde also the degrees of so many
herbes as Galene the chiefe Doctour of al phisicians hath
written of, and because men should not thynke that I write
of it that I never sawe, and that Poticaries shoulde be
excuselesse when as the ryghte herbes are required of the, I
haue shewed in what places of Englande, Germany, & Italy
the herbes growe, 2 and maye be had for laboure and money,
whereof I declare and teache the names in thys present
treates. Whiche howe profitable it shall be vnto al the sicke

whiche are of a ryght iudgemet in phisicke. Thys small

I maye haue leasure and occasion to

1 Adzes .
Bies is called in greke Elate, in english a fins tree, in
duch, Ein dannen, in french Sapin, it groweth in the
alpes naturally and in certeyne gardines plated and set
by mannes hande boeth in Englande and in Germanie.
Abrotonum.
Abrotonu is called in greke, Abrotonon, in englishe Sothern-
wod, in duche Affrush, in frenche Auronne. There are two kyndes
of Sothernwod, the male and the female. The male groweth plentu-
ously in gardines in Englande, but the female dyd I neuer see
growing in Englande, it is founde in Italy in plentie inough.
Sothernwod is hote and dry in the thirde degree.
Absinthium.
Absinthium is called in greke, Apsinthion, in englishe wormwod,
in Duche wermout, in french, Absince or Aluyne. There are three
kyndes of wormwod, beside the commune wormwod, wormwod
pontike, called in latin Absinthium ponticum, in en2glishe maye be
also called wormwod gentle, it is called of Mesue and of the
Potecaries of Germany Absinthium romanum the Coloners call it
graue crut, the Freses call it wylde rosmary. The beste kynde of
thys wormwode gentle or pontike that I haue sene came from Rome,
an other kynde of the same is to be had in Anwerp and thorowe al
Germany in plentie. The seconde kynde is called in latin Absin-
thium marinum and Seryphum, it groweth comonly in diches where-
into, the salte water vseth at certeyne tymes to come, it is plentuous
in Northumberlande by holy Ilande, and in Northfolke beside Lin, at
Barrowe in Brabant, and at Norden in est freslande. Some take
thys herbe agaynst the trueth for pontike wormwod. The thirde
kynde is called in latin Absinthium santonicum, I neuer se the

herbe but ones, it may be called in englishe frenche wormwod*
Oure commune wormvvod is called in latin Absinthium rusticum.
And here is to be marked that they are farre deceiued that vse this
for potike wormwod. I report me to Galene (xi Methodi medendi)
whether it be so or no. Pontike wormvvod, is hote in the fyrste
degree and dry in the thirde. Sea wormwod is hote in the seconde
degree and dry in the 1 fyrste, frenche wormwod is weaker then Sea
wormwod is.
A canthium.
Acanthium is called in greke Acanthion, it is named of some
herbaries carduus asininus, I haue not hearde the name of it in
englishe, but I thynke it maye be called in englishe otethistle,
because the seedes are lyke vnto rough otes, or gum thistle, or
cotten thistle, because it is gummy and the leaues haue in the a
thynge lyke cotten, which appeareth when they are broke. It
groweth in gardines in Bonony, I haue also sene it in England in
gardines, but neuer a brode. The herbe is of an hote & a subtile
nature.
Acanthus.
Acanthus is called in greke Acantha, in englishe Branke vrsin,
in duche welshe bearenklawe, in frenche branke vrsine, branca
vrsina groweth in many places of Englade in gardines and in the
greatest plentie that I euer sawe it, I did see it in my Lorde Pro-
tectours graces gardine at Syon, some erre sore whiche abuse for
thys herbe berefote. The rote of brakeursine drieth and cutteth
humours lyghtly, and is of subtile partes, the leaues haue power
metely to dryue humours to their places.
2 Aconitum.
There are .ij. kindes of the herbe called Aconitum, the one
kynde is called Pardalianches, whiche we may call in englishe
Libardbayne or one bery. It is much in Northumberland in a
wodde besyde Morpeth called Cottingwod. It hath foure leaues
lyke vnto great plataine, & in the ouermost top a litle blacke bery
2 A v, back.

lyke a blacke morbery, but blacker & greater. The other kynde is
called Lycoctonum, & in englishe it maye be called wolfes bayne.
But this kynde is deuided into two other kyndes, of whiche I neuer
sawe any kynde in Englande, the one hath leaues lyke crowfote,
and blewe floures lyke hodes, and it is called muench kappen in
duche, and it maye be called in englishe mokes coule or blewe
wolfs baine. The other kinde hath leaues lyke a playne tree or like
Palma christi & y el owe floures, thys maye be called in Englishe
yelowe wolfesbayn. I haue sene the former kind in great plentie
vpon the alpes betwene Clauena & Spelunca, and in manye gardines
in Brabant, the latter kynde dyd I neuer se but in gardines.
Acorus.
Acorus groweth not in England, wherfore they are farre deceyued
that vse the yelowe flourdeluce, whiche some call gladen, Hor
Acorus, for Acorus is hote, bytinge and opening, but gladen is
colde, vnsauery and astringent. I thynke that the great Galanga is
the true Acorus. If they haue not it they maye vse Calamus
aromaticus, or Asarabacca for Acorus. Acorus is hote and dry in
the thirde degree.
Adiantum.
Adiantum is called in greke Adianton, in duche iunkfrawen
hare, of the herbaries Capillus veneris & groweth not in englad
for it that is take here for Adiantum is trichomanes in Dioscorides.

in watery or drepyng rockes, and especially whereas the first water
begynneth to stande, if that a rocke lyke a browe, hange ouer the

Holwort, whiche is in Pleni Capnos phragmites. But their error is

Arbutus groweth in Italy, but hath leaues like Quicketree, a

A rtkemisia.
Arthemisia otherwyse called Parthenis, is commonly called in
englishe mugworte, and in duch Bifusse, it is not the very same
2 that Dioscorides describeth. I saw the right Mugwort in an Ilande
