Excerpt from Observations on the Poisonous Vegetables Which Are Either Indigenous in Great-Britain, or Cultivated for Ornament In the vegetable world, the attentive observer of nature hath for his contemplation a scene, which is large and greatly varied. The mountain, the valley, the field, and the forest, produce their peculiar plants, yet each of these situations bears such as are of qualities opposite to those of others that arise from the same spot of earth. United in the place from whence they derive their nourishment, there is all imaginable distance between their qualities: and whilst some act with a kind influence upon the human frame, others undermine the secret supports of life.
