" Quel que soit le principe de la vie animale, il ne faut qu'ouvrir les yeux pou voir qu'elle est le chef-d'eeuvre de la Toute-puissance, et le but auquel se ivippor' tent toutes ses ;—Bruckneu, TMorie du Systeme Animal, 1 1767. The sylvan powers Obey our summons; from their deepest dells The Dryads come, and throw tlieir garlands wild And odorous branches at our feet; the Nymphs That press with nimble step the mountain-thyme And piu-ple heath-flower come not empty-handed, But scatter round ten thousand forms minute Of velvet moss or lichen, 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 us unlock their secret stores And pay tlieir cheerful tribute. J. Taylor, Norwich, 1818. I.
