Preface _"Arms and the man" was Virgil's strain;
But we propose in lighter vein
To browse a crop from pastures (Green's)
Of England's Evolution scenes.
Who would from facts prognosticate
The future progress of this State,
Must own the chiefest fact to be
Her escalator is the Sea._

Prehistoric Historians erudite and sage,
When writing of the past stone age,
Tell us man once was clothed in skins
And tattooed patterns on his shins.
Rough bearded and with shaggy locks
He lived in dug-outs in the rocks.
Was often scared and run to earth
By creatures of abnormal girth:
Mammoths and monsters; truth to tell
We find their names too long to spell.
He joined in little feuds no doubt;
And with his weapons fashioned out
Of flint, went boldly to the fray;
And cracked a skull or two per day.

Druids We read of priests of Celtic day,
Ancient Druids, holding sway
By smattering of Occult law
And man's eternal sense of awe.
