The Speech of Monkeys
·
R. L. Garner
125
At
his
death
his
son
succeeds
him
in
the
task,
and
continues
through
his
life,
and
at
the
death
of
this
man
his
son
succeeds;
and
thus
in
turn
each
one
succeeds
the
other
through
a
million
generations.
Supposing
the
wind
and
rain
left
these
grains
of
sand
unmolested
during
this
long
lapse
of
time,
it
is
evident
that
at
the
place
from
which
the
sand
was
taken
there
would
be
a
hole,
and
where
it
was
deposited
there
would
be
a
hill.
It
is
by
such
slight
changes
that
Nature
does
her
work;
and
thus
it
is
that
speech,
as
well
as
matter,
has
been
transformed
from
what
it
was
to
what
it
is.
The
physical
basis
of
life
retains
its
identity
through
all
those
varied
forms,
from
protozoa
to
the
highest
type;
and
so
the
phonetic
basis
of
speech
adheres
through
all
the
changing
modes
of
thought
and
expression.
Speech
is
the
highest
type
of
language
and
the
most
accurate
mode
of
expression,
and
belongs
only
to
the
higher
forms
of
the
animal
kingdom.
It
has
passed
through
all
inferior
horizons
coinciding
with
the
mental,
moral,
and
social
planes
through
which
man
has
passed
in
the
course
of
his
evolution.
