[R] text(x,y,expression(sqrt(txt))), where txt is a text string.

I am using R0.65.0 development version (August 10 1999) under Unix,
and 0.64.2 under Windows 95.

I have e. g. 
> txt <- "abcd"

In
> plot(x,y, expression(sqrt(txt)))
I want txt to be evaluated, i. e. to get sqrt(abcd) plotted,
(with the square root symbol replacing sqrt, of course).
Is there a way to achieve this?
