The Winter Bergomot is of two or three sorts, being all of them small fruit, somewhat greener on the outside then the Summer kindes; all of them very delicate and good in their due time: for some will not be fit to bee eaten when others are well-nigh spent, euery of them outlasting another by a moneth or more.
The Diego peare is but a small peare, but an excellent well rellished fruit, tasting as if Muske had been put among it; many of them growe together, as it were in clusters.
The Duetete or double headed peare, so called of the forme, is a very good peare, not very great, of a russettish browne colour on the outside.
The Primating peare is a good moist peare, and early ripe.
The Geneting peare is a very good early ripe peare.
The greene Chesill is a delicate mellow peare, euen melting as it were in the mouth of the eater, although greenish on the outside.
The Catherine peare is knowne to all I thinke to be a yellow red sided peare, of a full waterish sweete taste, and ripe with the foremost.
The King Catherine is greater then the other, and of the same goodnesse, or rather better.
The Russet Catherine is a very good middle sized peare.
The Windsor peare is an excellent good peare, well knowne to most persons, and of a reasonable greatnesse: it will beare fruit some times twice in a yeare (and as it is said) three times in some places.
