"Quel que soit le principe de la vie animale, il ne faut qu'ouvrir les yeux pour voir qu'elle est le cbef-d'eeuvre de la Toute-puissance, et le but auquel se rapjior- teut toutes ses ;—Buucknek, Theoric du 8t/steme Animal, Leyden, 1707. The sylvan powers Obey our summons; from tbeir deepest dells The Dryads come, and throw their garlands wild And odorous branches at our feet; the Nymphs That press with nimble step the mountain-tliyme And purple heath-flower come not emjDty-handed, But scatter round ten tiionsand forms minute Of velvet moss or liclien, torn from rock Or rifted oak or cavern deep: the Naiads too Quit their loved native stream, from whose smooth face They crop the lily, and each sedge and rush That drinks the rippling tide: the frozen poles. Where peril waits the bold adventurer's tread, The burning sands of Borneo and Cayenne, All, all to ns unlock their secret stores And pay tiieir cheerful tribute. J. Taylor, Norwich, 1818.
