The powers of any young and vigorous eye.

Fifth Invocation to the Muse

Aroint thee, Muse! inspired the poet sings!

I cannot help observing future things!

The only hope of Humanity is in Science

Life is a vale, its paths are dark and rough

Only because we do not know enough.

When Science has discovered something more

We shall be happier than we were before.

Peroration in the spirit of the rest of the Poem
