FLORAL EMBLEMS. 291 



SUCCESS CROWN YOUR WISHES. 



CORONILLA. Coronilla. 



" Thy wish, exactly to thy heart's desire." 



Milton, 



" My crown is call'd content ; 



A crown it is that seldom kings enjoy." 



Shakspeare. 



This little shrub, which enlivens the fields 

 of Spain and Italy, derives its name from 

 corona, a crown, because the head of each of its 

 branches is crowned by a corymb of golden 

 flowers. We have, therefore, placed it in this 

 collection, as emblematical of our friendly 

 wishes. The gay coronilla, that dispenses its 

 sweet odours so agreeably through our con- 

 servatories, we hope will shortly attract the 

 notice of some poet, whose pen may happily 

 describe its beauties, and in return for the 

 verse, we will bestow on him the motto this 

 flower is made to express.
