Description

In the days of the long-ago, my ancestors did not dwell as we do now--in brooks or by the banks of shallow streams, but grew in wild luxuriance beneath the shade of overhanging trees, and under the wayside hedgerows. We were always a quiet, unassuming race, and, indeed, I am fain to confess, were not held in more esteem by mortals than are our sweet cousins whom children call 'Bird's-eyes'. But some one made known to the world that pathetic 'Legend of the Rhine', in which we are described, then people began to perceive that we were pretty, lovely indeed, --and to make a great fuss about us; but such is the way of the world! Yet, though that legend is tenderly beautiful and thrilling, it is almost too romantic to please the taste of simple flowers, therefore I will tell you the true story how we acquired our name. That shall be my parable--see what it will teach!
