Source text - English Plants grow and are nourished there as they are here
Here then we have found in there new Worlds Fields warm’d by the kindly Heat of the Sun, and water’d with fruitful Dews and Showers: That there must be Plants in them as well for Ornament as Use, we have shewn just now. And what Nourishment, what manner of Growth shall we allow them? Why, I think there can be no better, nay no other, than what we here experience; by having their Roots fastned into the Earth, and imbibing its nourishing Juices by their tender Fibres. And lest they should be only like so many bare Heaths, with nothing but creeping Shrubs and Bushes, we’ll e’en send them some nobler and loftier Plants, Trees, or somewhat like them: These being the greatest, and, except Waters, the only [29] Ornament that Nature has bestow’d upon the Earth. For not to speak of those many uses that are made of their Wood, there’s no one that is ignorant either of their Beauty or Pleasantness. Now what way can anyone imagine for a continual Production and Succession of these Plants, but their bearing Seed? A Method so excellent that it’s the only one that Nature has here made use of, and so wonderful, that it seems to be design’d not far this Earth alone.
Translation - Spanish Las Plantas crecen y son alimentadas allá tanto como acá
Aquí entonces hemos hallado en esos Nuevos Mundos Campos calentados por el acogedor Calor del Sol, y regados con fructíferos Rocíos y Lluvias: Que deben haber Plantas en ellos tanto para Ornamento como para Uso, lo demostraremos ahora. ¿Y que Nutrición, que formas de Crecimiento deberemos adjudicarles? Porque, yo pienso que no pueden ser mejor, no hay otra mejor, que las que nosotros aquí experimentamos; que es teniendo sus Raíces fijas en la Tierra, y bebiendo sus nutritivos Jugos por sus delicadas Fibras. Y para que no sean ellos solo como muchas desnudos Brezales, con casi nada excepto serpenteantes Arbustos, podemos otorgarles también algunas nobles y elevadas Plantas, Arboles , o algo como estos: Estos siendo las mas grandes, y, excepto las Aguas, el único Ornamento que [29] la Naturaleza ha establecido sobre la Tierra. Por no hablar de todos esos múltiples usos que son hechos con su Madera, no hay nadie que sea tan ignorante o sobre su Belleza o su Encanto. Ahora, ¿que forma puede alguien imaginar para una continua Producción y Sucesión de estas Plantas, sino únicamente a través de su Siembra? Un Método tan excelente que es el único de que la Naturaleza ha hecho uso, y tan maravilloso, que parece ser diseñado no solamente para esta Tierra.
