DISGUST. 



Frog Ophrys. — Habenaria viridis. 



" No more shall violets linger in the dell. 

 Or purple orchis variegate the plain." 



Mrs. C. Smith. 



From the resemblance which this curious 

 flower is thought to bear to the frog, it has 

 been made the emblem of disgust. 



" Those unenlarged souls are disgusted 

 with the wonders which the microscope has 

 discovered." —Watts.
