Let us glance at them again, taking a different flower for the example, namely, that of the Three-leaved Stonecrop. Although small, this has all the parts very distinct and regular. Fig. 153 is a moderately enlarged view of one of the middle or earhest flowers of this Stonecrop. (The others are like it, only with their parts in fours instead of fives.) And Fig. 154 shows two parts of each sort, one on each side, more magnified, and separated from the end of the flower-stalk (or Receptacle'), but standing in their natural position, namely, below or outside a Sepal, or leaf of the Calyx ; then a Petal, or leaf of the GoroUa ; then a Stamen ; then a Pistil. 5.
