DARWIN MEMORIAL. 95 



At least twelve of the more important works have been issued in 

 one or more editions in German and French, and a number in 

 other European languages as well. 



The sage of Down was undoubtedly honest in his surprise at the 

 ever-extending circle of his influence. A wider and more intelli- 

 gent audience could scarcely be desired. The number of books in 

 which his opinions are discussed or alluded to is legion. As the 

 illustrious Asa Gray has remarked, "Dante literature and Shakes- 

 peare literature have been the growth of centuries, but Darwinism 

 filled teeming catalogues during the life time of the author."
