    T have ventured, in the preparation of this edition, to make con- siderable alterations in the book, with the view of increasing its usefulness. For these I am alone responsible. Many of them have been made at the suggestion of friendly critics, known and un- known, and for this kind assistance I would here express my thanks. The most important alteration is the adoption of a Classification of Flowering-Plants which will be more faniiHar to English students than that which was followed in the First Edition. S. H. V. Cambridge, April, 1881. PREFACE TO THE THIRD ENGLISH EDITION. This edition, called for so rapidly after the appearance of the second, is issued without any change in tne contents of the book, other than purely typographical. The Publisuefj. Lo\P05. 1SS3.
