His bent bow and his arrows keen,
His good sword and his holy cross:”

“There is no kind of herb, but somebody or other says that it is good. I am very glad to hear it. It reminds me of the first chapter of Genesis. But how should they know that it is good? That is the mystery to me. I am always agreeably disappointed; it is incredible that they should have found it out.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
