Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from Our Poor Relations: A Philozoic Essay What a dismal hush in creation! what a multitudinous charm and delight wanting to the woods, the fields, the shallows, and the deeps! What glory lost to the grass with the spotted ladybirds, the mail-clad beetles, and the slender grasshoppers! What splendor gone from the flower with the bronzed and fire-tipped bee that fed on its heart, and the painted butterfly that hovered above its petals! How dull had been Eden for Adam with nothing breathing but Eve, and all the rest of creation inanimate - no voice but that of the wind or the thunder - no motion but the flow of the stream, the floating of the clouds, the waving of the trees! The earth would have been silent as a picture; the forest and the plain, the mountain and the lake, forlorn, tremendous, insupportable solitudes - solitudes that none would have sought, since there could have been neither hunters nor fishers, herdsmen nor shepherds. In far other measure has the gift of life been poured forth upon the earth. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
