Symzonia: Voyage of Discovery
·
Captain Adam Seaborn
23
At
night
all
are
assembled
in
the
city,
and
each
stand
is
crowned
with
two
of
these
exemplary
birds.
The
contemplation
of
these
orderly,
discreet,
and
beautiful
amphibia,
afforded
me
much
pleasure,
and
gave
rise
to
many
delightful
anticipations.
It
appeared
certain
to
me
that
they,
in
common
with
seals,
whales,
and
mackerel,
were
visiters
from
the
internal
world
through
the
southern
opening,
which
they
were
admirably
formed
to
pass
and
repass;
for
they
moved
with
great
facility,
in
the
water,
and
could
exist
under
it
as
well
as
fish.
On
land
they
walked
with
as
much
ease
as
men,
and
in
the
same
erect
posture.
It
occurred
to
me
that
a
world,
in
which
the
brute
creation
were
so
neatly
formed,
so
polished
in
their
manners,
so
social
in
their
habits,
and
so
quiet
and
well
behaved,
must,
if
men
existed
in
it,
be
the
abode
of
a
race
perfect
in
their
kind.
I
had
no
apprehension
of
the
air
being
unhealthy
in
the
internal
world
as
suggested
by
Capt.
Symmes,
because
the
climate
in
which
these
visiters
are
found
in
the
greatest
numbers
is
the
healthiest
of
the
external
world,
which
indicates
that
they
are
accustomed
to
good
air,
or
they
would
not
affect
this
salubrious
region.
Again,
I
had
observed
all
these
amphibia
to
be
of
a
remarkably
gentle
and
harmless
disposition.
The
sea-lion,
sea-elephant,
and
common
seal,
together
with
the
king-penguin,
the
Gentoo,
macaroni,
and
jackass-penguin,
all
of
different
habits,
yet
obviously
of
the
same
origin,
accommodated
themselves
on
the
same
island,
fed
in
the
same
sea,
and
on
the
same
food,
without
interfering
with
and
without
ever
being
observed
to
offer
violence
to
each
other;
from
which
I
inferred
that
the
inhabitants
of
the
internal
world,
influenced
by
the
same
causes,
must
be
of
a
remarkably
pacific,
and
gentle
disposition.
