A Century of Parody and Imitation

by Unknown

But calm all your maidenly fears;

We'll note, love, in one summer's day

The record of millions of years;

And though the Darwinian plan

Your sensitive feelings may shock,

We'll find the beginning of man,—

Our fossil ancestors, in rock!

MRS. JUDGE JENKINS.
