Rosa sine spinis. The Rose without thorns, or the Virgin Rose, is in shoots and leaves like unto the marbled Rose, but greener and smoother, without any thorns at all; the flowers are not so thick and double, spreading their leaves and standing forward from each other, of a pale red colour, with part of them on the faces of a pale blush, and the backsides of every leaf wholly of a whitish pale colour, so that the Roses when they come well (for sometimes they will seem as blasted) are fair and very sweet.
