Abstract


The paper deals with the herbage and the season that would have prevailed in the times of Adam and Eve and their subsequent fall. The scanty sources available in the text have been used to bring out the climate of the period. The flowers, trees, and bushes in the text help the study to conjecture the climate of the times. Though certainty eludes, speculation animate.
