Excerpt from An Introduction to the Study of English Botany: With a Glossary of Terms; Illustrated by Thirty-Seven Plates

When man was exiled from that blissful garden where every tree was pleasant to the sight or good for food, and doomed to eat the herb of the field where it grew amidst thorns and thistles, necessity made him a Botanist. He learned to separate the nutritious from the noxious and when pain and sickness assailed him, he sought the balsam and the balm.

The science of Economical Botany, teaching us to supply our wants from the stores of vegetable nature, has been known in all ages, and is diffused over every quarter of the world.
