Excerpt from Hearts and Flowers: And Other Poems The heart is the gem of nature, The brilliancy Of all its powers, Controlling its vast dominions In this ancient world of ours. Nature claims the right to rule In the hearts of beasts and men, And the hearts of all its landscapes Are the flowers it gave to them. The heart is the tear-drop fountain, Heaving and swelling so.

Excerpt from Among Flowers and Trees With the Poets or the Plant Kingdom in Verse: A Practical Cyclopaedia for Lovers of Flowers Shakespeare, Homer, Dante, Chaucer, saw the splendor of meaning that plays over the visi ble world; knew that a tree had another use than for apples, and corn another than for meal, and the ball of the earth than for tillage and roads; that these things bore a second and finer harvest to the mind, being emblems of its thoughts, and conveying in all their natural history a certain mute commentary on human life. In this age of science let it be remembered that the objects of nature may be viewed in a poetic aspect as well as in a scientific. Asters, willows, butterflies and sparrows serve just as high a pur pose when we think oi them as symbols as when we study them analytically. Roses exist as much for the purpose of suggesting love, sweetness, youth, and purity as for the study of calyx and petals and stamens.

Excerpt from Old Fashioned Flowers: And Other Out-of-Door Studies This morning, when I went to look at my flowers, surrounded by their white fence, which protects them against the good cattle grazing in the field beyond, I saw again in my mind all that blossoms in the woods, the fields, the gardens, the orangeries and the greenhouses; and I thought of all that we owe to the world of marvels which the bees visit.
