LIN NtfAN ARTIFICIAL SYSTEM. 121 



Monandria, diandria, trianrtria, tetrandria, pentandria, hexandria, 

 polyandria, monadelphia, and polyadelphia, are the list of orders, as 

 belonging to the two classes above mentioned. 



24. In the twenty-third class, polygamia, the orders 

 are established on the separation of the stamens and 

 pistils. 



These orders are monoecia and dioecia, in accordance with the 

 classes so called ; and trioecia from treis three, and oikos a house, 

 because the stamens and pistils maybe said to have three dwellings. 



25. The orders of the last class, or cryptogamia, are 

 founded on circumstances which we shall mention, 

 when speaking of that peculiar class of vegetables. 



With this we close the first section of the Linncean system ; in the 

 next we shall display the separate characters of each class, and give 

 a full account of the whole arrangement in respective order.
