The word “vegetable” comes from the Medieval Latin vegetabilis, which means growing, flourishing, continually alive. And it had that same expansive meaning when the word vegetable was first recorded in the English language in the early 15th century—referring to something that was vigorous and capable of continual life and growth. So it makes complete sense that in the 17th century, Andrew Marvell wrote, "Had we but world enough, and time / This coyness, lady, were no crime. ... / My vegetable love should grow / Vaster than empires and more slow."
