Botany can be fun! This is from a book on plant life in England by Robert Morison, early modern drug czar.
I don't know how I feel about Latin jokes and puns, but I made one anyway. Actually, I do know how I feel about them . . . I feel terrible.

Fragaria Sylvestris is the dank shit. I bet early modern Doug would probably sit around all day playing Immortal Soul Combat, pimpin' like a ratcatcher, and rolling in an Urban VIII-style ride, all while blasting some Pac[helbel].
I'm am making it a top priority to find an illustration of "early modern Doug." I searched the term "badass gangsta muthafucka" in EEBO, but nothing came up!(?) Maybe I'll try "baddasse gangsteer Mother-Fckur" to see if I'll have any luck...sometimes the spellings will get you.
