In time, he will listen to me out of curiosity, inasmuch as, to tell the truth, I am not a tiresome master; but I dare not yet interrogate him in a Socratic way. The SHORT LITTLE QUESTIONS would make our hot-headed young man angry. The lesson finished, he wished to commence his herbarium under my eyes.
He appears to have been as contented as a child, so long as he could employ himself in long expeditions in search of new plants, in arranging a herbarium, in watching the growth of the germ of some rare seed which needed careful tending. But the story had once more the same conclusion. He fled from Trye, as he had fled from Wootton.
I, who have carefully kept so many faded flowers, fallen, alas! into dust, stolen here and there, at moments of parting in different parts of the world; I, who have kept so many that the collection is now an absurd, an indistinguishable herbarium I try hard, but without success, to awaken some sentiment for these lotus and yet they are the last living souvenirs of my summer at Nagasaki.
"Except in the rainy season, I camp all over the place at any spot where I may have been shooting or collecting." "Collecting?" queried Nellie. "Yes; with the herbarium, you know." "Yes," said Nellie dubiously. "But you told me once the first time we ever talked together," she added, looking in his eyes "something about your keeping your things like a squirrel in a tree. Could we not go there?
Miss Baird, that taught the school I went to over at Rainy Gap, had a herbarium, and put all kinds of pressed flowers in it. I gathered a great many for her, and she taught me to analyze them like you were speaking of but I never did love to do that.
I send you one in this letter, which I dug out of a snow bank this morning. And this fair creation this hope upon a death bed this image of love unchilled and immortal how I wanted to know it by name! Today, at the summit house of the mountain, I opened an herbarium, and there were three inches of name as hopeless and unpronounceable as the German of our guides, piled up on my little flower.
He collected nearly ten thousand specimens of birds, which he skinned and carefully prepared so they could be mounted when he returned to England; there was also a nearly complete Brazilian herbarium, and a finer collection of birds' eggs than any museum of England could boast. This collection represented over three years' continuous toil.
They are mentioned by Rumphius in his Herbarium Amboinense, vol. ii. p. 257; but the tree in which he saw their dwelling is very different from that in which we found them. A third kind we found nested in the root of a plant, which grows on the bark of trees in the manner of misletoe, and which they had perforated for that use.
I do not intend to repeat the "Smelter City Herald's" flare head announcement of "the deplorable and tragical accident that cut short one of the most promising political careers in the United States." "Senator Moyese had long been accustomed to search the mountains in autumn for seeds and roots of specimen flowers for his herbarium, of which he had made a hobby.
Hathaway," he said, speaking slowly and quite distinctly "am I right in inferring that it is not confined strictly to points within the State boundaries?" At this the lumberman repeated a phrase which he had used in the anxious conference in the Weatherford herbarium. "If I thought you didn't know, I'd go a long time without telling you, Mr. Blount. But of course you do know.
