註釋
When the speaker in Andrew Marvell's 「To his Coy Mistress」 tells his mistress that 「Had we but world enough, and time . . . /My vegetable love should grow/Vaster than empires and more slow,」he 「makes one think of pumpkins and eternity in one breath,」 as one critic has playfully suggested. However, vegetable in this case is used figuratively in the sense, 「having the property of life and growth, as does a plant.」 This use is based on the ancient religious and philosophical notion of the tripartite soul as interpreted by the Scholastics: the vegetative soul common to plants, animals, and humans; the sensitive soul common to animals and humans; and the rational soul, found only in humans. 「 Vegetable love」 in Marvell's poem is thus a love that grows, takes nourishment, and reproduces, although it grows slowly. Marvell's use illustrates the original sense of vegetable, first recorded in the 15th century. In a work published in 1582 we find recorded for the first time the adjective use of vegetable familiar to us, 「having to do with plants.」 In a work of the same date appears the first instance of vegetable as a noun, meaning 「a plant.」 It is not until the 18th century that we find the noun and adjective used in the more restricted way associated with the injunction 「Eat your vegetables.」
當安德魯·馬韋爾的「致他的羞澀情人」一詩中的說話者告訴他的情人「如果我們有足夠的世界和時間…/我的植物一樣的愛會生長得/比帝國更廣大、更慢」時，他「使人想起了南瓜以及一息之間的永恆，」某個批評家開玩笑似地說。然而，在這個情況下vegetable 是被用於比喻意義上的， 意思是「像植物一樣具有生命和生長的性質」。 這一用法是基於由經院哲學家所釋的三重靈魂的古代宗教和哲學觀念之上的：vegetative 的靈魂為植物、動物和人類共有； sensitive 的靈魂為動物和人類共有； 而rational 的靈魂卻只存在於人類中。 因此馬韋爾詩中的「植物的愛」是一種生長的、吸取營養並繁殖的愛，但是它長得很慢。馬韋爾的這一用法指示了vegetable 的原先的含義， 最早記錄於15世紀。在一部出版於1582年的作品中，我們第一次找到了已為我們熟悉的vegetable 一詞的形容詞用法的記錄，意思是「與植物有關的」。 在同一時期的另一部作品中，出現了vegetable 作為名詞用的第一個例子，意思是「植物」。 直到18世紀，我們才發現該名詞和形容詞被用於與「吃你的蔬菜」這一命令相關的更受限制的方式中
