To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

It grows pretty commonly. My piece was gathered near a well in Wensleydale. The Horse Mint has a shaggy spike and pointed leaves, which are woolly beneath. The Bound-leaved Mint (M. Rotundifolia), has an acrid smell, and its stamens are very prominent. The stem of the Tall Bed Mint is zigzag and smooth ; and that of the Bushy Bed Mint nearly so. We have not found specimens of these plants. But which of us does not " know a bank where the wild Thyme grows ? " I know twenty such. Most fully do I ...sym- pathise in the love that the ancients had for the smell of this flower. "When they wished to praise any author they said he smelt of Thyme. The Greeks considered it as an emblem of activity, and it is certainly an incentive to the practice of it among the bee-folk. Sheep that have browsed where it grows yield the best mutton, and it was considered to improve veni- son greatly (Thymus serpyllum). The plant is too familiar to need description. The Basil Thyme (T. Acinos), is a pretty plant ; recumbent like the Wild Thyme, but with stiff stems, and bluish-grey flowers, beautifully spotted with purple.
