22 POPULAR HISTORY OF THE AQUARIUM. 



History an occasion for diving deeply into abtruse doctrinal 

 subjects, I may point out the legitimate effect of such studies 

 in the words of Coleridge's ' Ancient Mariner/ 



" Oh, happy living tHngs ! no tongue 

 Their beauty could declare ; 

 A spring of love gushed from my heart. 

 And I bless'd them unaware. 



" Farewell, farewell ; but this I tell 

 To thee, thou wedding guest. 

 He prayeth well that loveth well 

 Both man, and bii'd, and beast. 



" He prayeth well that loveth well 

 All things, both great and small ; 

 For the dear God that loveth us 

 Made them, and loveth all."
