CULINARY HERBS
Their Cultivation, Harvesting, Curing and Uses
By
M. G. KAINS
Associate Editor American Agriculturist
Ah, Zephyrus! art here, and Flora too!
Ye tender bibbers of the rain and dew,
Young playmates of the rose and daffodil,
Be careful, ere ye enter in, to fill
Your baskets high
With fennel green, and balm, and golden pines,
Savory, latter-mint, and columbines,
Cool parsley, basil sweet, and sunny thyme;
Yea, every flower and leaf of every clime,
All gather'd in the dewy morn: hie
Away! fly, fly!
—Keats, “Endymion”
