THE
EVOLUTION OF WORLDS
FROM NEBULAE
BY
LEE PARKER DEAN.
Who formed the countless worlds on high,
Who gave to them their speed,
Who keeps them all within their bounds,
Who guides each fiery steed;
Who plans for them their distances,
Moves them in mighty space,
Revealing wisdom and not chance;—
Whose hand but God’s there trace?
For what seems chance at simple gaze
The impress bears of thought,
When studied close in all their ways
Worlds cannot spring from naught.

TO THE READER.
The author sends out this little book feeling that if thereby he has made more clear the Unseen Hand that evolved and still controls the universe he will be amply rewarded.
