Excerpt from The Language of Botany: Being a Dictionary of the Terms Made Use of in That Science, Principally by Linneus; With Familiar Explanations, and an Attempt to Establish Significant English Terms; The Whole Interspersed With Critical Remarks

But when it became univerfally adopted, a Vernacular Language would of couri'e be gradually formed and if it were to be left to chance, or the choice of the ignorant, many abfurdities and barbarifrns would be introduced, debaling our fierling Englifh.
