N. xxv. 34.
1 84 ON THE HISTORY IN WORDS.
' patch,' a name of contempt, not unfrequent in Shakespeare, is said to have been the proper name of a favorite fool of Cardinal Wolsey's ; and Colonel Negus in Queen Anne's time to have first mixed the beverage which goes by his name. Lord Orrery was the first for whom an ' orrery ' was constructed ; and Lord Spencer first wore, or first brought into fashion, a ' spencer.' Dahl, a Swede, introduced the cultiva- tiofl of the ' dahlia ; ' the ' fuchsia '... is named after Fuchs, a German botanist of the sixteenth century; the ' magnolia ' after Magnol, a distinguished French botanist of the beginning of the eighteenth ; the ' ca- mellia' was introduced into Europe from Japan in 1 73 1 by Camel, a member of the Society of Jesus.
' Quassia ' derives its name from a negro sorcerer of Surinam, who in 1730 discovered its properties, and after whom it was called. A French Protestant refu- gee, Tabinet by name, first made ' tabinet ' in Dublin ; another Frenchman, the ebenist Boule, in the time of Lewis the Fourteenth, gave his name to ' buhl ' work ; while yet another, Goulard, a physician of Montpellier, gave his to the soothing lotion, not un- known in our nurseries.
