INTRODUCTION. 
XI 
And he wandered away and away 
With Nature, the dear old Nurse, 
Who sang to him night and day, 
The rhymes of the Universe. 
And whenever the way seemed long, 
Or his heart began to fail, 
She would sing a more wonderful song 
Or tell a more wonderful tale. 
The editor will be very glad to receive notice of any errata 
or omissions that may be found in this book ; and also 
notice of any new species, whether native or casual, giving 
the locality and date ; or any new stations of the rarer plants 
already noted ; or of the extinction of any of the present 
records.
