Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Wild Flowers of Scotland It thus appears that in a land like this the pur suit of the rarer wild flowers need not be lacking in manliness. If they do not run away, it is because they are safe from all but the boldest, who will blench at nothing, in some giddy place which no blue hare could reach, and where no mountain bird could perch. Where wild animals thin out towards the tops of mountains until, it may be, only two are left, wild plants climb on ahead, scaling everything by the way, so that one who would follow them must be at least as hardy as a ptarmigan shooter. No scene so rude as to deter them, or so lofty as to keep them back. If they are not higher, it is because there is no greater height to reach.

She felt, I think, but as a wild-flower can, Through her bright fluttering rags, the dark, the cold. Some farthest star, remembering what man Forgets, had warmed her little head with gold. Above her, hollow-eyed, long blind to tears, Leaf-cloaked, a skeleton of stone arose... Oh, castle-shadow of a thousand years, Where you have fallen - is this the thing that grows?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Wayside and Woodland Blossoms: A Pocket Guide to British Wild-Flowers for the Country Rambler A common complaint made to botanists by unscientific ower lovers refers to the difficulty of acquiring a knowledge of Botany. They fear a bogey in the shape of the dreadful words of Greek or Latin origin, and what they consider the involved system of classification into classes, orders, genera and species but, like most other bogies, this one is easily put to ight by a slight exhibition of courage. The white sheet spread across a post to frighten the timid turns out on close inspection to be a chart of the Vegetable Kingdom, making exploration easy, and the post itself is a guide-post! We do not suppose that our readers will experience any serious difficulty respecting the few, though oft repeated, technical terms and the scientific names introduced in the two volumes of this work; and if that is so, we may surely go so far as to counsel them to study some simple manual of structural botany, such as Sir J. D. Hooker's Primer of Botany, published by Macmillan and Co. After such study, elementary though it be, they will find that not only the blossoms, but all other portions of the plant also, are full of interest. In truth, such rudimentary acquaintance with the plant as a whole - how it came to be, how it is built up, how it lives and grows and plays its part in the work of the universe is really necessary before we can fully appreciate all the beauty of ower structure.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Scottish Fairy and Folk Tales It is only within comparatively recent years that the homely stories in the mouths of the country-people have been constituted a branch of learning, and have had applied to them, as such, the methods and the terminology of science. No doubt a very noteworthy gain to knowledge has resulted from this treatment, - a curious department of research has been opened up, and light has been cast upon various outside things of greater importance than the subject of study itself. But, side by side with this gain to knowledge, is there not, involved in the method of treatment indicated, a loss to the stories themselves? Classified, tabulated, scientifically named, they are no longer the wild free product of Nature that we knew and loved: - they are become, so to speak, a collection of butterflies in a case, an album of pressed wild flowers.
