Excerpt from A Contribution to the Flora of Derbyshire: Being an Account of the Flowering Plants, Ferns, and Characeae Found in the County This book is not issued as containing a complete record of the Flora of Derbyshire, but as a pioneer of future efforts towards obtaining full information of the plants growing within its boundaries, since very little has been done in that part of the county where the coal measures occur. It is, therefore, to be hoped that the issue of this publication may have the effect of stirring up the Botanists living in this part of the county to work out the subject of it and may the perusal of the following pages have this further result, that those who study the distribution of flowering and other plants in our country may be led by that study into a deeper admiration of God's works, and a more profound reverence for the wisdom of Him who has appointed the variations of climate, the recurrence of the seasons in their order, and the bounds of man's habitation; and who has displayed in the wondrously adapted organs of the lowliest plants Almighty power and Infinite love! Studying His wonders in creation, even in that portion of His works included in botanical research, may every reader of this work be led to desire a more intimate acquaintance with the wonders of redeeming love, beside which even creative power is comparatively small! I shall be glad to receive communications giving informa tion respecting the plants mentioned in the following pages, or any that may be hereafter discovered in Derbyshire.
