2 1 5 When I behold this little peopled world, Large as an asteroid, in the nether blue, Its flashing wheels, proud decks, and flags unfurled ; Then fancy that ancestral savage who First pushed from shore with paddle and canoe, I m forced to the Darwinian conclusion That here s a masterpiece of evolution. From the first skiff of sutured skins or bark To the three-decker with its thundering guns, From Jason s classic junk, or Noah s ark, To the grand steamship of five thousand tons, The thing de...veloped : just as Man was once Well, not a monkey ; that he never was But something less, evolved through Nature s laws. Allah il Allah ! great is Evolution, And Darwin eminently is its Prophet ! Out of primeval chaos and confusion It massed the nebulous orb, and fashioned of it The sun and planets ; one whereof it saw fit To finish off with most attractive features, And make the abode of curious living creatures. 2l6 GUY VERNON. All which I do most potently believe, Taking large stock in Natural Selection.
