This has been somewhat of a revelation to English colonists, no less than to foreign nationalities; but it is a fact. That fact is no doubt fully recognised by the German Government, and it is a fact which will be respected.

VII. do Paraiso Perdido, nos presenta todos os Vegetaes, sahindo da maõ do CREADOR, ornados da agradavel Cor de Verde, que nelles geralmente domina: He scarce had said, when the bare earth, till then Desert and bare, unsightly, unadorn'd, Brought forth the tender grass, whose verdure clad Her universal face with pleasant green, Then herbs of every leaf, that sudden flour'd Op'ning their various colours, and made gay Her bosom smelling sweet: and these scarce blown, Forth flourish't thick the clustring vine, forth crept The smelling gourd, up stood the cornie reed Embattell'd in her field: and the humble shrub And bush with frizl'd hair implicit: last Rose as in dance the stately trees, and spred Their branches hung with copious fruit; or gemm'd Their blossoms: with high woods the hills were crown'd With tufts the vallies and each fountain side, With borders long the rivers.
