Сторінка 269 - It is interesting to contemplate an entangled bank, clothed with many plants of many kinds, with birds singing on the bushes, with various insects flitting about, and with worms crawling through the damp earth...
Сторінка 261 - What needs my Shakespeare for his honoured bones, The labour of an age in piled stones, Or that his hallowed relics should be hid Under a star-ypointing pyramid? Dear son of memory, great heir of Fame, What need'st thou such weak witness of thy name? Thou in our wonder and astonishment Hast built thyself a livelong monument.
Сторінка 269 - There is grandeur in this view of life, with its several powers, having been originally breathed by the Creator into a few forms or into one; and that, whilst this planet has gone cycling on according to the fixed law of gravity, from so simple a beginning endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful have been, and are being evolved.

Сторінка 29 - If we consider the heavens, the work of his fingers, the moon and the stars which he has ordained...
Сторінка 209 - Report on the Progress and Condition of the Royal Gardens at Kew during the Year 1875, p.
Сторінка 237 - Newton and Raphael — are potential in the fires of the sun. We long to learn something of our origin. If the Evolution hypothesis be correct, even this unsatisfied yearning must have come to us across the ages which separate the primeval mist from the consciousness of to-day.
Сторінка 190 - In the schools provided by the Board the Bible shall be read, and there shall be given such- explanations and such instruction therefrom in the principles of morality and religion as are suited to the capacities of children.
