<ptr target="ukred-31330">‘Truth, indeed,is stranger than fiction, and scientific facts more wonderful than the most imaginative plot written by a Wells or a Conan Doyle,and more engrossing than those romances pictorially illustrated by any “movie” artist in his most fascinating moments.
In considering this entrancing subject of science in its popular aspects, I love to remember that beautiful thought which Longfellow puts into his poem on “The Fifteenth [Fiftieth] Birthday of Agassiz” –
“And nature, the old nurse, took
The child upon her knee,
Saying, “Here is a story-book
Thy Father has written for thee.”
“Come wander with me”, she said
“Into regions yet untrod
And read what is still unread
In the manuscripts of God.”
And he wandered away and away
With Nature, the dear old nurse,
Who sang to him night and day
The rhymes of the Universe.
And whenever the way seemed long
Or his heart began to fail,
She would sing a more wonderful song
Or tell a more marvellous tale.”"
