- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Much like opportunely pressing your whole face into a bouquet, plant lovers, particularly those with an appreciation for roses and enthusiasm for all things antiquarian, this reprinted book is a sensuous delight. What an unexpected joy to sit and read the beautiful words aloud while looking at the gorgeous folds of petals. A lost treasure found.

See, Mignonne, hath not the Rose,
That this morning did unclose
Her purple mantle to the light,
Lost, before the day be dead,
The glory of her raiment red,
Her colour, bright as yours is bright?
Ah, Mignonne, in how few hours,
The petals of her purple flowers
All have faded, fallen, died;
Sad Nature, mother ruinous,
That seest thy fair child perish thus
‘Twixt matin song and even tide.
Hear me, my darling, speaking sooth,
Gather the fleet flower of your youth,
Take ye your pleasure at the best;
Be merry ere your beauty flit,
For length of days will tarnish it
Like roses that were loveliest.
— Pierre de Ronsard
Rosa tomentosa (Flore multiplici)
Cottony Rose (variety with double flowers)
The ingenious allusions to roses that have prevailed in poetry for centuries, the use of roses in celebrations and ceremonies in Antiquity, the cult that roses became for certain populations in modern times seem to be subjects worthy of an introduction to a piece of work dedicated to the reproduction for the reader of that most beautiful of flowers in the fullness of its glory. Instead, since this literary approach to roses has been taken so eruditely by Rosenberg in his Rhodologie and with so much grace and elegance by President d’Orbessan in his Essai sur les roses, readers are simply referred to these works.
