60 Biology and History. [Feb. 14, 



I could not but inquire 



Why is this glorious creature to be found 



One only in ten thousand ? What one is, 



Why may not millions be ? What bars are thrown 



By Nature in the way of such a hope ? " 



Consider how far we have come, the base degrees by which we 

 did ascend, and answer with Shakespeare, "There are many events in 

 the womb of Time which will be delivered." 



[C. W. S.]
