A beekeeper, seeing the bee collect pollen from flowers and carry it to the hive, says that it exists to gather honey. He licked the pollen and dust from his dry lips, stiffened himself, mind and body, and rode out into the blazing sunshine. In the case of the misseltoe, which draws its nourishment from certain trees, which has seeds that must be transported by certain birds, and which has flowers with separate sexes absolutely requiring the agency of certain insects to bring pollen from one flower to the other, it is equally preposterous to account for the structure of this parasite, with its relations to several distinct organic beings, by the effects of external conditions, or of habit, or of the volition of the plant itself. |
