Picea.
The spruce tree
At picea emittat nullos quòd stirpe stolones:
Illius est index, qui sine prole perit.
But the spruce, because it sends up no shoots from its stock, is a symbol of the man who dies without progeny.

coin avant de coucher avec son mari la premiere
nuict: à cause que ce premier plaisir, qui se recueille
de la voix & de la bouche, doit estre doux et bien
