In Tennyson's palace of Art occur
the lines:
She saw the snowy poles and moons Of
Mars,
That mystic field of drifted light
In mid OriSn, and the married stars
This at first looks like a literary par
allel to Swift's well known fortuitous
forecast of the discovery of the Mar
tan satellites, and j. S. Stevenson,
writing from Blairavon,s Norwood,
Ceylon, points out that Professor IL.
Fl. Turner quotes it in Modern Astron-
omy' as having been written in 1885.
This, however, appears not to have
been the case, for Mr.. Stevenson on
reference to the biography of the late
poet laureate by the present Lord
Tennyson has found the note: THE
Moons of Mars is the only modern
reading here. All the rest are more
than half a century old" Scientific dis
covery was thus not anticipated by
Tennyson in the mention of Marian
atellites.-Nature
