Excerpt from The Gallery of Nature and Art, Vol. 5 of 6: Or, a Tour Through Creation and Science But though a true natural system has not been discovered, it can not be denied that some plants are allied by such very striking resemblances, that they may be considered as belonging to natural classes. Those resemblances, however, extend but to few plants, and there are many wanting to connect one natural family with another. These affinities, however, have been sufficient to enable botanists to arrange plants by their external characters, and this arrangement has been called a Natural System, (systema natu rale.)
