LANGUAGE OF FLOWERS. 
Ill 
Capricious Beauty, Music Rose. 
This capricious rose will languish in situations which at 
first appeared most favorable to it. One year it will be 
loaded with flowers, and the next it will refuse to blossom 
at all. 
Chagrin, Marigold. See p. 56. 
Change, Pimpernel. 
Always closing before rain, it denotes a change of weather. 
Chastity, Orange Blossom. 
Coarseness, Grossness, Pompion, or Pumpkin. 
Coldness, Agnus Castus. See p. 84. 
Compassion, Elder. 
The elder is said to furnish quack doctors with many of 
their most successful remedies. The great Boerhaave is said 
to have held the medicinal qualities of the elder in such rever¬ 
ence, that he would take off his hat when passing it. Elder 
berries make a very excellent wine. 
Conceit, Pomegranate. 
A pomegranate in Spanish is granada ; and the kingdom 
of Granada is said to have derived its name from the pome¬ 
granate trees planted there by the Moors; which is quite 
probable, from a cleft pomegranate being represented on its 
arms. 
Confession of love, Rosebud. See p. 42. 
Confidence, Liverwort. 
Conjugal love. Linden , or Lime, See p. 33.
