"It will appear therefore, an ungrounded Hypotheſis to maintain, as ſome have done, that every Fruit or Seed ſhould contain in itsſelf all thoſe Trees and Fruits in Miniature, that were poſſible to be produced hereafter from them. / It is abundantly ſufficient, I think, that all ſuch Fruit, or Seed, as come to Maturity, are productive of their own Species, and that when ſuch Species ſhall be produced, it is from the Seed in itsſelf that conſtitutes it ſuch a Species, ſince without its Seed in itsſelf it is not the Species it was firſt created, and therefore the Seed remaining in the Species is that, which thro’ all Generations maintains their different Kinds, and will one with another be for ever continued."
