    The rise of every man he loved to trace,
    Up to the very pod O!
    And, in baboons, our parent race
    Was found by old Monboddo.
    Their A, B, C, he made them speak,
    And learn their qui, quae, quod, O!
    Till Hebrew, Latin, Welsh, and Greek
    They knew as well's Monboddo!

Out of the heart a rapture,
Then a pain;
Out of the dead, cold ashes,
Life again.

Said the little Eohippus,
"I am going to be a horse,
And on my middle fingernails
To run my earthly course!

I'm going to have a flowing tail!
I'm going to have a mane!
I'm going to stand fourteen hands high
On the Psychozoic plain!"

Uttering, for elevation of our thought,
A clear sonorous voice, inaudible

We seem to exist in a hazardous time,
Driftin' along here through space;
Nobody knows just when we begun,
Or how fur we've gone in the race.

Observe constantly that all things take place by change, and
accustom thyself to consider that the nature of the Universe
loves nothing so much as to change the things which are, and to
make new things like them.
