Orchises

 

The handsomest and most interesting flowers were the great orchises, rising ever and anon, with their great spikes perfectly erect, amid the shrubs and grasses of the shore. It seemed strange that they should be made to grow there in such profusion, seen of moose and moose-hunters only, while they are so rare in Concord.
