This book was released on 2015-07-03 with total page 474 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The British Flora Medica, or History of the Medicinal Plants of Great Britain The great importance of the vegetable kingdom, whether it be considered as affording aliment, clothing, or medicine to the human race, is so obvious as to require no demonstration. If we recur to the earliest periods of the history of our globe, we observe the first dawn of medical science in the employment of those productions which, springing up in such abundance, and affording as they did to primeval man the chief, if not the only article of food, were naturally resorted to as the most suitable remedies for disease and pain. Through every succeeding age, plants have attracted a large share of attention, and have formed the chief resources of the healing art; and though for a time disregarded, in the rage for minerals and visionary schemes of treatment, it may be safely affirmed, that they constitute the most potent, tractable, and valuable agents with which the physician is acquainted; and, as the clouds which still in some degree envelope their qualities and mode of action are dispersed, their importance will become more eminently conspicuous. It is a trite remark, but not the less true, that the indigenous plants of Britain are too much neglected: this is doubtless, in great measure, the result of that undue preference for all that is novel and rare, and difficult to be procured, so characteristic of human nature; to which may be added, that partial and disingenuous spirit of criticism which condemns without investigating, and would deprive an object of all its excellencies, because it is sanctioned by the voice of antiquity or the homeliness of rustic practice.

Excerpt: ...erect style, about as long as the stamens, and terminated bya simple stigma. The fruit consists of five capsules or follicles, nearly cylindrical, straight, pointed, one-celled, one-valved, and many-seeded. The seeds are oval, smooth, dark, and shining, and attached to both edges of the suture of each follicle. Plate 13, fig. 3, (a) stamens and pistils; (b) a petal with its spur; (c) the pistils, the germens of which are surrounded with ten scales; (d) the fruit, consisting of five capsules or follicles united at the base. This plant is found in meadows, woods, and coppices in several parts of England, but it can scarcely be reckoned an indigenous plant, having escaped from gardens, where it is very generally cultivated. A common near Skegby, in Nottinghamshire, Langwith Woods, in Derbyshire, and Ditchling Common, Sussex, are mentioned as some of its localities. It flowers in June. The generic name is derived from dquila, an eagle, in reference to the spurs of the petals, which were thought to resemble the claws of that bird. The common English name suggests the idea of the more gentle dove. There is some doubt as to whether the Columbine was familiar to the ancients: Caspar Bauhin considers it the munwm of Theophrastus, and the nrovrupov of Dioscorides. The genus Aquilegia is not very numerous, but most of the species are pretty and vivacious, especially the Alpine Columbine (A. Alpina). The plant before us is an old inhabitant of the flower-garden, and there are many varieties with violet, purple, red, flesh-coloured, and white flowers, but no art can change these tints to yellow.
