the analytical language of john wilkins

I'd like to first start off by saying that I completely agree with the rest of you guys that this article was VERY confusing. It starts off out of no where talking about how Wilkins likes all these random things (i.e. music, building beehives) and that threw me off rite away. And then all of a sudden its talking about how the Royal Academy edits dictionairies spanish words? Then there are the pictures of the the plant/animal things. Which I found humerous. "Nonsense Botany 1871", it all sounds like nonsense to me.
