THIS AGE OF OURS.

DEAR me, how wondrous wise the world
Has grown since we began 1t!
Even schoolgirls now can search the skies
And play with each new planet;
Can sweetly chat of nebule,
Descant on Natures wonders,
Laugh down the stupid elder folk,
And ridicule their blunders.
The merest boy, with clever head
And proper education,
Can put to shame the hairs of his
Grandfatherly relation.
With feet that fear no ditch, he goes
On puZzling raids and rambles,
And makes his way, without a scratch,
Through philosophic brambles.
And children of the larger growth
The full-blown men and women
OF these enlightened days-why, they
Are surely more than human.
Win hands tlat hoI id all things thaS sHinH
sne universe and weigh IL,
Take down the sun from heaven and try
BY science to assay 1T.
The cause of all that is to them
Is just as plain as preaching,
And every pseful thing they are
Quite capable of teaching.
They know exactly how the earth
Became what we behold it,
And hint it might be better had
The task been theirs to mold it.
"
But still, ah still these hearts of ours
Throb in the same old fashion,
And feel, just as our fathers felt,
The pang of every passion.
Great progress has been made, no doubt,
Where Science spreads her highways;
Bur still poor Human Nature gropes
Through many cheerless byways.
