IO 'DIFFERENT FORMS OF FLOWERS.' [1878. 



The review alluded to in the next letter is at p. 445 of the 

 volume of ' Nature ' for 1878 :] 



C. Darwin to W. Thiselton Dyer. 



Down, April 5, 1878. 



My DEAR Dyer, — I have just read in ' Nature' the review 

 of ' Forms of Flowers,' and I am sure that it is by you. I wish 

 with all my heart that it deserved one quarter of the praises 

 which you give it. Some of your remarks have interested me 

 greatly. . . . Hearty thanks for your generous and most kind 

 sympathy, which does a man real good, when he is as dog-tired 

 as I am at this minute with working all day, so good-bye. 



C. Darwin.
