"Magic Plants" is an interesting historical look (written in 1700 no less) at past ages and the usage of herbs within a spiritual context. With references to astrology, the Aeslepion, and other concepts, it is dense and detailed with references to many antiquated medical and philosophical minds. It combines this with a short witch trial manuscript involving two herbal references, apparently to display the torment which plagued the better medical minds of past ages.
