Excerpt from The Poetical Remains of the Late Allan Stewart: With a Memoir of the Author
Botany has been brought to a high state of improve ment - that the arrangements and classifications of Linnaeas are perfect. And by the help of the beautiful delineations of the pencil, the student of nature is able to make great progress without stir ring from his study. It is extremely probable, however, that should he walk into the wilderness, he may chance to meet a flower, the striking col ours and delicious perfume of which will amply repay the pilgrimage he has made.
