And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after his kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after his kind: and God saw that it was good."- GENESIS i. 12. "By His care the tender grass Springs where flock or herd shall pass; He the riper blade assigned For a treasure to mankind. So might earth her store impart ; The new wine cheer man's sinking heart; So with oil his brow might brighten, Bread his sinking spirit lighten." PSALM Civ. Oxford Psalter.
