Other beings are produced directly, either from the egg or the maternal womb ; as, however, the Deity does nothing in vain, it may be presumed that He must have had in view some important object in the preliminary steps through which these beings have to pass — from the egg to the larva, chrysalis, and perfect insect ; and however low these minutiae of...

The engineer Who lays the last stone of his sea-built tower, It cost him years and years of toil to raise — And, smiling at it, tells the winds and waves To roar and whistle now — but, in a night, Beholds the tempest sporting in its place — May look aghast, as I did !
