Alexander Cornelius has called a tree by the name of "eon," [Note] with the wood of which, he says, the ship Argo was built. This tree has on it a mistletoe similar to that of the oak, which is proof against all injury from either fire or water,
in the same manner, in fact, as that of no other tree known. This tree, however, appears to have been known to no other author, that I am aware of.
