DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from The Language of Flowers: Floral Emblems of Thoughts, Feelings, and Sentiments Before the different languages which are now common among men were developed, various animate and inanimate objects were made use of instead of words, for the purpose of giving expression to thoughts. Animals, birds, and flowers were emblems of individuals and their characteristics; and though sometimes erroneously assigned, they are yet very generally adopted. Lions and foxes, eagles and hawks, and an almost endless number of quadrupeds and fowls of the air, have been thus applied and are still; yet, since most of us are little familiar with beasts and birds of prey, in these days of high civilization, it is natural that we should make choice of objects which are mixed up with our daily life, when we desire to give expression to our opinions or feelings by means of symbols rather than words. In the vegetable kingdom we find objects most suitable for this purpose. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from The Language of Flowers, With Illustrative Poetry: To Which Is Now First Added, the Calendar of Flowers But little study will be requisite for the science which we teach. Nature has been before us. We must, however, premise two or three rules. When a ower is presented in its natural position, the senti ment is to be understood affirmatively; when re versed, negatively. For instance, a rose-bud, with its leaves and thorns, indicates fear with hope but, if reversed, it must be construed as saying you may neither fear nor hope. Again, divest the same rose-bud of its thorns, and it permits the most sanguine hope; deprive it of its petals, and retain the thorns, and the worst fears may be entertained. The expression of every ower may be thus varied by varying its state or position. The Marigold is emblematical of pain; place it on the head and it signifies trouble of mind; on the heart, the pangs of love; on the bosom, the disgusts of ennui. The pronoun I is expressed by inclining the symbol to the right, and the pronoun than by inclining it to the left.
