The Fairy-Land of Science
·
Arabella B. Buckley

And
now
we
have
touched
lightly
on
the
chief
ways
in
which
water
and
ice
carve
out
the
surface
of
the
earth.
We
have
seen
that
rain,
rivers,
springs,
the
waves
of
the
sea,
frost,
and
glaciers
all
do
their
part
in
chiselling
out
ravines
and
valleys,
and
in
producing
rugged
peaks
or
undulating
plains
-
here
cutting
through
rocks
so
as
to
form
precipitous
cliffs,
there
laying
down
new
land
to
add
to
the
flat
country
-
in
one
place
grinding
stones
to
powder,
in
others
piling
them
up
in
gigantic
ridges.
We
cannot
go
a
step
into
the
country
without
seeing
the
work
of
water
around
us;
every
little
gully
and
ravine
tells
us
that
the
sculpture
is
going
on;
every
stream,
with
its
burden
of
visible
or
invisible
matter,
reminds
us
that
some
earth
is
being
taken
away
and
carried
to
a
new
spot.
In
our
little
lives
we
see
indeed
but
the
very
small
changes,
but
by
these
we
learn
how
greater
ones
have
been
brought
about,
and
how
we
owe
the
outline
of
all
our
beautiful
scenery,
with
its
hills
and
valleys,
its
mountains
and
plains,
its
cliffs
and
caverns,
its
quiet
nooks
and
its
grand
rugged
precipices,
to
the
work
of
the
"Two
great
sculptors,
Water
and
Ice."
