My aim h bee to give an exact of the first edit of Gerard

Catalogue of his Garden, line for hne, and :arefully retaining th(
but attempting absolute facsim The various borders
head and tailpieces, and the type, are Imitated nearly as could be done with
modern appliances, but I have not cop d turned m a wrong
fount, nor certain curious braces, which, no doubt intended to bracket togethe;
nearly alHed species, were strangely misapplied. The original printing is very bad
some places very black, in others as faint ; Italic, and sm are fre-
d in place of Roman Rob living at that time
in ery far from Gerard's abode, that was probably th

title, which I have omitted, was worked from the same block which was employed
for the Herball in the following year.

Next in order will be found a reprint of the second ed of the same

Latin names, the second, the English equivalent

as the style of type is concerned, but on a sm d th
economising space, have not repeated the leading name^of each plant, when

I have been able the plants of the Catalogue with those of th e
 I

VI

rger work, no easy matter in many cases from the names failing to correspond ;

e references are to the correct numbers of the pages which are sometimes at
iriance with the printed numbers. A dash ;- following the English name,
dicates that I am not able to quote the plant as occurring in the Herball; where
Johnson criticises Gerard, gives a better figure, or supplies one wantii g in th

Author's edition, I have also quoted the edition of 1633. It will be seen that
extracts from the Herball are frequently suppHed, when Hkely to add interest to
the account of the several plants. In a few other cases, I have referred to the
other works, for which must refer the reader
I to the list of books quoted.
With very few exceptions, I have strictly adhered to the original order in which
the items occur, an occasional transposition having been made for the sake of
convenience, and a verv few obvious misnrints corrected.

The names given last are in Clarendon type, and are those in modern use. In
reducing the old nomenclature to its modern equivalents, I have made free use of
contemporaneous botany. Johnson's edition of Gerard's Herball (1633), Bauhln's
Pinax (1623), and Ray's HistoriaPlantarum (1686-1704), were in constant requisition,
whilst Aiton's Hortus Kewensis, ed. II. (1810-13) was of great service in checking
the results. Many othenvise doubtful plants have been determined by help of
the Sloane Herbarium, the possession of which, contributes to render the British
Museum unrivalled for such researches; the only other place, in this country at all
events, where similar facilities are obtainable, is Oxford, from the Sherardian Library
and Herbarium in the Botanic Garden there. The vagueness noticeable in
Gerard's works, has proved a constant source of annoyance and possible error in
the task of determination I have, however, succeeded in escaping some mistakes
;

which my predecessors in this unfrequented field have committed. How far I have
completely avoided error, of course cannot tell, but I may honestly state, that I
I

have snared neither time nnr nainQ fn r, nder this work as

accurate throughout
possible ; those who have engaged in similar
work to mine, will, I doubt not,
look leniently upon the shortcomings of this work,
to which I cannot blind myself.
Ithas frequently been necessary, from the total
incompatibility of the English
and Latin names, to judge by probabilities, which
denomination to foil

The typographical execution of the second edition

is far superior to that of the
first, as will be seen on ijispection even of
this reprint the original pagination I have
;

indicated by figures placed in the margin.

The only copy of the first edition, so
lar as I am aware, is that in the
British Museum, (Press mark, C. 18. b.) formerly
in the possession of Sir Hans Sloane ; this is the copy described by Dryander in
 Vll

Bibl. Banks, and followed by Pritzel, there is MS. copy in the Banksian
also a
collection, in the BotanicalDepartment of the same institution. The second edition
although far from common, is to be met with occasionally in private hands, as well
as in public libraries. It is erroneously described by Pritzel in both editions of his

Thesaurus, from the copy in the Bodleian Library, as a quarto; it is really a small
foho. An example to which great interest is attached, is bound up with a copy of
the Herball, now in the Botanical Department of the British Museum, and formerly
belonging to James Petiver ; this has suffered from the depredations of mice, and
injudicious trimming of the gnawed edges to conceal that injury as much as possible.
Petiver has written on the title page " Ex dono generosi D. R. Reynardson," and
the epithet " cornicula assopica Clusii " has been added to the authors name by
some earlier owner. A few MS. notes are scattered through this copy, and the
certificate has been defaced as mentioned on p. 55, and as I believe by L'Obel
himself.

- From its rarity, and careless printing, I should infer that the edition of
1596 was chiefly intended to circulate among the author's own immediate friends ;

but after the Herball appeared, the amended edition of 1599 would command a
much larger circulation, and the copies would be more carefully preserved.

It may be worth remarking that the weather about the time when Gerard
published his Catalogus and Herball, was most unpropitious ; for a series of years,
wet summers had raised the price of corn, and in 1596, wheat in London reached
tthe famine price of ;^5 40 per quarter; this too when the purchasing power of
money was fully six times its present value. This fact should be borne in mind,
when noticing the Author's statements about his garden.

The memoir of the Author has been drawn up from all available sources, the
Herball largely contributing from contemporary writers a good deal has been
;

obtained ; the parish registers both of his native place and his residence in London,
have been and some information has been gleaned from the Public Record
utilised,
Office, whilst the College of Arms, and the Registers of the Stationers' Company
have been laid under contribution. The chief source of hitherto unpublished infor-
mation relative to Gerard, has been gained from the Archives in the possession of
the Barbers' Company. Had these last been in better order, and in worthier
keeping, probably more might have been ascertained than I have been enabled to
do. At the time of Gerard's connection with this Livery Company, its power
was at its zenith; but as time passed on, it proved inadequate to fufil the
 Vlll

requirements of the day, and like the great majority of similar corporations, now
only exists for the gratification of its members.

The circumstances attending my search in the Barbers* Records are worthy of

remark. In the first instance, I wrote to the Clerk of the Company, Mr. Henley
Grose Smith, asking if he could give me any information about the subject of my
work; after waiting for more than g any answer, I
>

to the Hall in Monkwell Street, and was thence referred by the housekeeper to the
Clerk's office in the City. In my interview with him, he said that he was pressed
for time just then, and that ifhe sent a clerk to the Hall purposely, he must charge
his time to me, but that if I would consent to wait a fortnight, his clerk would be
at Barbers' Hall, and I could " take advantage of his being there." Although the
delay was irksome, I consented to wait, but shortly afterwards, Mr. Smith, for his
own convenience, wrote to postpone the date of my visit, to nearly a month subse-
quent to my interview with him. On the day appointed, I carefully looked over such
and quitted the place in
of the books about the required date as the clerk could find,
less than three hours from the time of entering. The following day to my extreme
surprise, I received a note from the Clerk, requesting me to remit one guinea "for
clerk's time." I replied, pointing out how monstrous it was to charge me with an

exorbitant amount, merely for his deputy's trouble in finding and placing before me
certain books, for whilst I was at the Hall, the Clerk's clerk was engaged in
r
work for
the Company, apparently preparing notices to be sent to the members. For answer to
this letter of mine, I had an offensively worded epistle, totally ignoring the questions

I had put, and taking credit for making no charge for correspondence. In rejoinder
I said, that the so-called correspondence consisted of these items : (a) Not answer-
ing my letter of enquiry, and thus compelling me to call at two places, (b) altering
the date of my visit to suit himself, (c) sending in his claim, (d) his attempt
to justify it. Although strongly urged to withstand this imposition, I felt it impos-
sible to remain under the slightest obligation in this quarter, and therefore sent a
cheque, enclosed in a brief note, expressing my sense of the want of right feeling
displayed by twice charging for his clerk's services, first to the Company and then
to me, who neither had, nor required, the undivided attention of his subordinate.
I received no acknowledsrement whatever of this letter.

There only remains the pleasing duty of acknowledging the kind assistance of
who h ive so materially contributed to the completion of my task. To the
officers of the Botanical Department of the British Museum, Mr, W
Carkuthers, F.R S., Dr. Henry Trimen, and Mr. James Britten, I must exp

:

when it came to the triall, my French man did not know one to his fewer/' This statement can
only apply to Jean Robin, who, in 1597, was appointed keeper of the King's garden in Paris, on
account of his success as a cultivator; that Gerard was on intimate terms with Robin, may be seen
in the number of plants received from him, and acknowledged in the Herball.
Gerard was elected a member of the Court of Assistants of the Barber-Surgeons, June igth, 1595?^^
and in the following year, July i6th, 1596,^ he was commissioned, with another, to seek a better
. place fora ''fruit- ground*' thanthatin ''East Smithfielde or ffetterlane." At this time he had a house
in Holborn,'* then the most aristocratic portion of London; his garden was probably attached to his
F

house, or may have been the identical plot mentioned above, in Fetterlane, as there were many
gardens belonging- to the wealthier citizens in that locality. The northern side of Holborn, which
has been sug-gfested as the probable site of Gerard's garden, is unlikely, since during the last few
years of Elizabeth's reign, the spot now occupied by Ely Place and Hatton Garden, was a garden
of forty acres, belonging to the Bishopric of Ely /^
The following interesting draft of a letter is in Gerard's autograph, and was probably drawn up
previous to 1596

In this year, 1596, our Author made his first appearance in print; being urged by many friends
he issued a list of the plants he had cultivated in his own garden, for some years ;" this catalogue
will be found described in the introduction. So far as I can learn, this little work of twenty-four
pages is the first professedly complete catalogue of any one garden, either public or private, ever
published. There are two previous works indeed of somewhat similar purpose, but as will
be seen,
they really occupy different ground. In the one case Conrad Gesner drew up
a codified list of
choice plants, cultivated in the gardens of about twenty of his friends,'' and short lists foUow, of
rarities in certain gardens; in the other, Johan an
extremely scarce work, in 48 pages, which contains a catalogue of
growing near Launitz all plants
in Bohemia, both wild or cultivated, the latter being distinguished by the addition of
the letter H.
The year following, Gerard was attacked by a " most greeuous ague and of long continuance";^"
J December, the
work by which his name has been preserved, appeared at his own risk(?)," under the title of The '*

Herball, or general historic of Plants," etc- The history of this work is curious, and well deserv-
ing: of attention.
John Norton, the Queen's had commissioned a Dr, Priest, a member of the Colleo-e of
printer,"-'

Physicians,'* to translate Dodoen*s Pemptades (1583) from the Latin into English,^s but ^^ trans-
lator dying before the completion of his task,^ the unfinished work came by some means, into the
hands of Gerard.^ To mask the fact of his Herball being little else than a mere translation, he
altered the arrangement from that of Dodoens into that of L'Obel, and flippantly remarking that he
K
had heard of Dr. Priest's labours, but the man being dead, his work had perished with him,=^ he had
the effrontery to declare that his own researches had produced the work, to which that statement
was prefixed. The wood
blocks used by Tabernsemontanus in his Eicones (1590), (not the Neuw
Kreuterbuch, 1588), with some others, were procured from Frankfort by Norton,"' but Gerard soon
showed his slender knowledge,3° by misapplying many of the figures, and caused so much con-
fusion in the early chapters of the Herball, that the attention of the printer was directed to it by
James Garret, a London Apothecary, and the correspondent of Charles de I'EscIuse. L'Obel was there-
upon invited to correct the work, and by his own account he actually corrected it in a thousand
places, but further emendation was stopped by the author, who contended that the Herball was
already sufficiently accurate, and that his censor had forgotten the English lano-uage.^^
I am
disposed to credit this assertion, after careful comparison of the names used by Gerard,
in both
editions of his Catalogus, with those in his Herball,
and although L'Obel addressed Gerard in very
complimentary terms,^ yet afterwards he used needlessly bitter language in speakino-
of his old
acquaintance, ^^ charging him with pilfering from the Adversaria without acknowledgement,^*
and
giving inappropriate names to plants^^^
The Hei ball contains upwards of eighteen hundred woodcuts, of which not more
than sixteen
appear to be original,^ although Sprengel gives a list of twenty-five, either original
or peculiar,
some being no improvement upon the old figures ;37 yet Gerard ventured to excuse
certain
irregularities in his third book, owing to his being ''hindered by the slacknesse of the cutters

ences made by him to Tabernaemontanus, Eicones Stirpium (1590); one hundred and thirty-one,

f work is comparatively seldom quoted, since the emended issue under the editorship of Thomas
i

Johnson in 1633, is greatly superior in every respect; indeed it was almost entirely due to the

ability of the editor, that the Herball continued for so long, the standard for English students. It

is but fair however to mention, that Gerard modestly avows his own slight attainments,^^ and states

that it was principally intended for gentlewomen/^ Neither of the two editions of the Catalogus, norj
the Herball were registered at Stationers' HalL
Gerard, was appointed one of the examiners of candidates for admission to the

Thornie lent *' to Mr. Gerrard, one Corslet and one headpeece, a sworde and a dager." ^ Why he
borrowed these weapons, unless for personal defence in that troublous period, I can hardly under-
stand, since the Members of his Craft were exempted by Statute,*^ from being called upon to bear
arms, or to serve upon any inquest or watch. The same year witnessed the publication of the
second edition of his Catalogus. r

I cannot trace any particulars of Gerard during the three years following, at the end of which
time he re-appears in the following entry, 2 Nov., 1602. ^'This day it is ordered that the committee
for Mr. Gerrard's garden, shall this afternoon meete at the hall to consider of the report for a
garden for the said Mr. Gerrard/' '^ No subsequent minute appears with reference to the fore-
going, but it is not unlikely, that the action of the committee resulted in a lease being granted

Ma^^ of England ffraunce and Ireland the second and of Scotland the eight and thirtie."

This grant was "endorsed, 30 August, 1604/' The draft, which differs from the deed itself in

some particulars, was drawn up at Theobalds. Gerard did not long enjoy the use of this garden,
for by another endorsement we learn that he parted with all his interest in the lease, 26 Nov, 1605,
to Robert Earl of Salisbury, second son of Lord Burleigh, then Lord Treasurer of England and
Walsi ighame, until upon the death of the later the
whole of the duties of that office devolved upon the former. It is possible that Gerard occupied

a similar position in the household of the son as in that of the father.

There certainly must have been some strong reason to prevent his sustaining all the honours of

605
Ward
for certayne consideracons, And is fined ye which he is p''sentlie to pay
for the said places xJ,

p^'sent Mr. or to take his place as though he had serued the place
governor And is hereafter
of vpper governor Anything to the contrarie notwithstandinge.'* Gerard consented to make the
payment, but subsequently applied to have it remitted in December he paid the £10,^^ but prayed ;

that might be treated as a deposit, until the next Court, in the hope that the fine would not
it

be enforced ; but the Court held 15 May, 1606, finally decided that the fine could not be foregone.-*"
On 21 Oct, 1606, the subject of our memoir was fined by the court, amount not stated, for
.

abusing John Peck, a fellow examiner, and ordered to be friendly and all controversy between
them to cease.'*^

In August, 1608, he was elected Master of the Barber-Surgeons* Company, but the books of the
Company are missing for that period ; consequently I am unable to supply any further details of
his life. He died in February, 161 1-2, and w^as buried in St. Andrew's Church, Holborn, on the
1 8th of that month ;^° but there is nothing to indicate the actual spot; one of his friends Thomas
Thornie has an elaborate monument in the ChurcH.
r t

Gerard, no doubt, had as good practical knowledge of plants as any of his countrymen then
living, and owing to his patronage by the most powerful statesman of the Elizabethan Court, he
had good opportunities of enriching the gardens under his care with new plants, and he certainly
cannot be reproached with having neglected those opportunities- His accuracy how^ever was not
unimpeachable, he having recorded as natives of this country, many plants he could not have found
under the circumstances Joh
later, were decidedly superior to Gerard, from nearly every point of view. Still Gerard drew

attention to indigenous botany, and an impetus was g-iven to the study, which no previous writer
had succeeded in accomplishing; a comparison of Lyte's Herball with that under notice, will
readily exemplify this. Of his family matters we know next to nothing; he was married.s^ and his
wife assisted him professionally, but no hint given of any other member
is of his family. The
baptismal registers of Andrew's, Holborn, which commence in 1558, might throw some light
St.
upon this point, but the task would be a long and tedious one, in the total absence of
a clue to guide
the searcher to any particular period.
The list of names of his acquaintances, more than fifty, scattered through the Herball, is too long
to give here. He received plants from all the then accessible parts of the globe, and from, men of
almost every rank Robin of Paris, previously mentioned, Camerarius of Nuremburg, Lord
in life.
Zouch, Nicholas Lete, and John Franqueville, the last two London
merchants, Thomas Edwards, and
James Garret, apothecaries, were amongst the contributors of exotic plants, whilst
for indigenous,
the names most frequently appearing are Thomas Hesketh,
a Lancashire gentlemen, and Stephen ^
Bredwell, a physician. Gerard dispatched one of his assistants, as a ship's 'surgeon to the
Mediterranean, in the Hercules,'^ that he might bring home some
new plants. He, himself, had
travelled over a large part of England, but Salmon's
statement as to his living in Lincolnshire'^
refers to Johnson. There no will of Gerard's at Somerset House, but it is not probable
is
that he
acquired wealth the printer of the Herball in this respect, was more
; successful than the compiler.
A half length portrait of Gerard, engraved by William Rogers, faces p. i. of the Herball ; he
holds a branch of the Potato plant. Beneath are his own arms, those of the City of London, and
of the Company of Barber-Surgeons.
A reduced copy of this portrait appears on the
title page of Johnson's edition, and
Sir J. E. Smith possessed a copper plate== of another
engraved by Hall, much worn, but I have
not succeeded m tracing it, nor have I seen any impression
from it.

This rare and strange plant was sent to me from the French Kings Herbarist, Robhius, dwelling

in Paris at the signe of the blacke head, in the streete called Du bout du Monde, in English, -Ihe

herbe planted my garden, and in the beginning of May it came foorth

end of the world. This I in

of the ground, with small, hard and wooddie crooked stalkes whereupon grow rough and sharp :

pointed leaues, almost like Alliaria, that Is to say Sauce alone, or lacke by the hedge. UObcUus
and Dodoncsiis say, that the leaues are somewhat like luie, but in my iudgement they are rather
somewhat snipt about the edges, and turning themselues flat vpright, as a man
like i4Z/mn^,
tumeth his hande vpwardes when he receiueth money. Vpon the same stalks come foorth smal
consisting of fower leaues, whose outsides are purple, the edges on the inner side red, the
flowers,
yellow, and the middle part of a bright red colour, and the whole flower somewhat
bottome
hollow. This I have secne, although Dodoncrus saith that it neuer beareth any flower at all. The
cause may be, for that the countrie where he sawe the same doth not agree so well with thg
nature of the plant, as our soile of England doth. The rooteis small, and creepeth almost vpon
vppermost face of the earth. It beareth his seede in very small cods like Saracens Consound,
the
which came not to ripenesse in my garden, by reason that it was dried away with the
but shorter :

extreme and vnaccustomed heate of the sunne, which happened in the yeere 1590. since which
time from yeere to yeere it bringeth seede to perfection. Further Dioscorides and Plinie do report,
that it is without flower or seede." Ger, I. c,
