Malus medica.
The citron
Aurea sunt Veneris poma haec: iucundus amaror
Indicat, est Graecis sic γλυκυπίκρος amor.[1]
These golden fruits belong to Venus: the sweet bitterness tells us that. Even so is love glukupikros for the Greeks.

EMBLEMA CCIX [=204] .
Buxus.
The box-tree
Perpetuò viridis, crispoque cacumine Buxus,
Unde est disparibus fistula facta modis:[1]
Delitiis apta est teneris, & amantibus arbor:
Pallor inest illi, pallet & omnis amans.[2]
The box-tree is evergreen, with crinkly shoots. From it was made the pipe with its variously pitched notes. It is a tree appropriate to tender delights and to lovers. Box-wood is pale and so is every lover.
Das CCIX [=204] .
Buchßbaum.
Der Buchbaum ist grün alle zeit
Der schöne krausse Wirbel treit
Auß den macht man mancherley weiß
Liebliche Pfeiffen sonders fleiß
Dieser Baum tauget zu fried und schimpff
Und den Bulern zu ehr und glimpff
Sein Holtz ist gel, also auch all
Die mit lieb seind verhafft zumal.
