"[The #Botanist should] keep up the old names as well as the new.
We must always have our #SweetWilliam, #Kingcup, #SweetCicely, #Loosestrife, #Heartsease, Codlins-and-Creams, & #Feverfew.
All [these] #Names [have] #Stories. [Their] loss would be a loss to the #Language; their very mention turns thoughts to #Gardens & the pasture #Lands of #Summer gone but come again."
