Excerpt from Curtis's Botanical Magazine, or Flower-Garden Displayed, 1801, Vol. 15: In Which the Most Ornamental Foreign Plants, Cultivated in the Open Ground, the Green House, and the Stove, Are Accurately Represented in Their Natural Colours For himfelf, the Editor folicits the indulgence of the learned Botanill, an indulgence he feels to be more than ordinarily necefq fary for being engaged in a laborious and important profeflion, and having ever made Botany his amufement, never a ferions liudy, he has greater dependance upon the continued allilt ance of his more learned friends than upon the exertion of his own abilities. But, with this aid, he flatters himfelf that the B0 tanical Magazine will continue in every refpeét to deferve the public favour as well as it has heretofore done.
