content: Botanical sketches from Vermont showing views of ferns and another flowering plant. At left, four long branches resembling palm fronds are situated vertically. Only a few of their leaves at upper left include the bumpy, ridged details that identify the branches as those from fern plants. At lower center, two other small sketches of fern branches are shown, while at far right, a plant crowned with small flowers is sketched in some detail.
