The Fairy-Land of Science
·
Arabella B. Buckley
172
One
single
queen
reigns
over
the
whole
of
this
numerous
population,
and
you
might
perhaps
fancy
that,
having
so
many
subjects
to
work
for
her
and
wait
upon
her,
she
would
do
nothing
but
amuse
herself.
On
the
contrary,
she
too
obeys
the
laws
laid
down
for
her
guidance,
and
never,
except
on
one
or
two
state
occasions,
goes
out
of
the
city,
but
works
as
hard
as
the
rest
in
performing
her
own
royal
duties.
From
sunrise
to
sunset,
whenever
the
weather
is
fine,
all
is
life,
activity,
and
bustle
in
this
busy
city.
Though
the
gates
are
so
narrow
that
two
inhabitants
can
only
just
pass
each
other
on
their
way
through
them,
yet
thousands
go
in
and
out
every
hour
of
the
day;
some
bringing
in
materials
to
build
new
houses,
others
food
and
provisions
to
store
up
for
the
winter;
and
while
all
appears
confusion
and
disorder
among
this
rapidly
moving
throng,
yet
in
reality
each
has
her
own
work
to
do,
and
perfect
order
reigns
over
the
whole.
