Plots of each DF column show the same Title (instead of the specific DF column name)

Question

Hi all!.

The R code below,
works great to display 4 plots,
one plot for each numeric column in the iris DF.
And that's exactly the plots i need.

Problem is,
all 4 plots (one for each column),
have the same default Title at the top:
Histogram of x

...instead of a plot Title at the top, for each specific DF column name:
Histogram of Sepal.Length
Histogram of Sepal.Width,
etc.

Here's the R code:

 f <- function(x){
      c( hist(x, freq = FALSE ), 
        lines(density(x)) )
    }
  sapply(iris[1:4], f) # where "f" is the FX f/above!.

What R-code am I missing?.
Help, please!...

par(mfrow = c(2,2))
f <- function(data, colname){
  hist(data[,colname], freq = FALSE, 
       main = paste("Histogram of", colname),
       xlab = colname) 
  lines(density(data[,colname]))
}

sapply(names(iris)[1:4], function(x) f(iris, x))
