1. C, FRUTicuLOSus. The Wall Flower. March — June. 
On the walls of abbeys and old buildings, frequent. 
The Wall Flower has been considered the emblem of fidelity in misfortune, because it attaches itself to 
the desolate, and enlivens the ruins which time and neglect would otherwise render repulsive. It conceals 
the savage records of feudal times by decorating the castle walls ; occupies the painful void of the moul- 
dering abbey ; and weaves a garland on the dilapidated monument, deserted even by grateful memory. 
“ For this, obedient zephyrs bear 
Her light seeds round yon turret’s mould ; 
And, undispers’d by tempests there, 
They rise in vegetable gold.”
