Excerpt from Flower Lore and Legend Lone flower, hemmed in with snows, and white as they, But hardier far, once more I see thee bend Thy forehead, as if fearful to Offend, Like an unbidden guest; though day by day, Storms, sallying from the mountain tops waylay The rising sun, and on the plains descend; Yet thou art welcome, welcome as a friend Whose zeal outruns his promise!

Excerpt from Flowers and Flower Lore While the Introduction and' Notes will supply such other information as may be required for the intelligent study of Flower Lore. It is therefore quite unnecessary for me to write a long preface, especially as I have taken pains to acknowledge my obligations to former writers by giving their names and the titles of their works whenever I have been indebted to them. I have every reason to hope that as great care has been taken in the preparation and revision of this work, it may give pleasure and satisfaction to such as, either from the love of Natural History or of Folk Lore, shall make it their study.

This fine work is a compilation of flower related lore that spans from antiquity to then-modern times and dozens of cultures and species. The symbolism of some flowers in spiritual and religious paths is well noted, but here it is illustrated further by both poetry and prose.Fairly deep in its content, "Flower Lore and Legend" is helpful in that it additionally provides a fairly detailed series of references to each species (especially the rose, lily, sunflower, and clover) in their use in legend and recorded, accepted history alike. Highly useful to the occultist, the botany buff, and the historian alike.

Excerpt from Myths and Legends of Flowers, Trees, Fruits, and Plants: In All Ages and in All Climes The very religions of all lands have fruits and trees in their cosmogonies, and plant-lore opens a quaint human document in its disclosure of that self-complacency which assumed the earth to be a strictly human property, in which all was for the service of man, and nothing existed of its own right. Out of this notion came the doctrine of signa tures - a system for discovering the medicinal uses of a plant from something in its external appearance that re sembled the disease it would cure. For instance, the leaves of aspen shook, hence it must be good for shaking palsy; gromwell had a stony seed, so it was prescribed for gravel; saxifrage grew in cracks in the rocks, therefore it would crack the deposits known as stone in the bladder; knots of scrophularia were prescribed for scrofulous swell ings, the pappus of scabiosa for leprosy, the spotted leaves of pulmonaria for consumption (notice how these beliefs and uses have named certain species), nettle tea was for nettle rash, blood-root for dysentery, turmeric for jaundice, because it was the color of a jaundiced skin; wood sorrel, having a heart-shaped leaf, was a cordial, or heart restora tive; liverwort corrected an inactive liver; dracontium, or herb dragon, was a cure for snake poison; briony cured dropsy, because its root suggested a swollen foot.

Excerpt from The Fragrant Note Book: Romance and Legend of the Flower Garden and the Bye-Way Pilgrim, would you catch up an armful of these if they were ready at your hand? If so, follow the dumb porter and he will show you the promise of spring and the dingle dell; and the gardener will sing you occasional songs of his own and will tell you tale upon tale of the flowers in which you will hear myth and legend, folk-lore and history a-plenty, but of horticulture, not a word. In order that those who wish may know whence the flowers have been brought and who first planted and watered them, small cold frames will be found at the back of the garden where Caxton has carefully preserved these little biographi cal nothings in the form of foot notes and these are open to the inspection of all seekers after exact knowledge.
