Synopsis

Excerpt from An Introduction to Physiological and Systematical Botany

Rousseau, a great judge of the human heart and observer of human manners, has remarked, that when science is transplanted from the mountains and woods into cities and worldly so ciety, it loses its genuine charms, and becomes a source of envy,jealousy-and rivalship. This is still more4 true if it be cultivated as a mere source of emolument. But the man who loves botany for its own sake knows no such feelings, nor is be dependent for happiness on situations or scenes that favour their growth. He would find himself neither solitary nor desolate, had he no other companion than a mountain daisy, that modest crimson-tipped flower, so sweetly sung by one of Nature's own poets. The humblest weed or moss will ever afford him somethingsto examine or to illustrate, and a great deal to admire. Introduce him to the magnificence of a tropical forest, the enamelled meadows of the Alps, or the wonders of New Holland, and his thoughts will not dwell much.
