14. The series was completed by the advent of man. Fully sustained. 15. Man made his appearance in possession of his distinctive human faculties, and as lord of the animal world. A settled fact. Such are the statements here made, when the writer is permitted to tell his story in his own sim- ple and naUiral \Nd, y \ a grand outline of the earth's story, sustained throughout b}' the latest knowledge of facts. A most extraordinar}^ record it is ; the more so because only within the century past c...ould its truthfulness be authenticated. But now it stands forth, in the words of Professor Dana, "both true and divine. " If it be said, as it has been, that the ordinary THE CREA TION NARRA TIVE 257 reader would not apprehend all that is covered by these statements, as, for example, the lapse of time included in the day, the reply is that the details which awaited the late discoveries of science did not hinder the apprehension and impression of the great truths taught by the narrative. Some of the facts now proved baffle the imagination of even the scientist to apprehend, and the early revelation of them would have been not only useless, but a stum- bling block for several thousand years.
