Author of the Flora Londinensis. VOL. IV. | Observe the rising Lily's snowy grace, | | Observe the various vegetable race; | | They neither toil nor spin, but careless grow, | | Yet see how warm they blush! how bright they glow! | | What regal vestments can with them compare! | | What king so shining, or what queen so fair. | Thomson. LONDON: Printed by Couchman and Fry, Throgmorton-Street. For W. CURTIS, No 3, St. George's-Crescent, Black-Friars-Road; And Sold by the principal Booksellers in Great-Britain and Ireland. M DCC XCI. Transcriber's Note: There is a departure from the usual format here with Strelitzia ReginÆ. having two illustrations, No 119 and No 120, thus creating a gap in the sequence.
