Glaucus; Or, The Wonders of the Shore

But
what
is
even
this
to
the
delight
of
finding
a
new
species?—
of
rescuing
(as
it
seems
to
you)
one
more
thought
of
the
Divine
mind
from
Hela,
and
the
realms
of
the
unknown,
unclassified,
uncomprehended?
As
it
seems
to
you:
though
in
reality
it
only
seems
so,
in
a
world
wherein
not
a
sparrow
falls
to
the
ground
unnoticed
by
our
Father
who
is
in
heaven.
The
truth
is,
the
pleasure
of
finding
new
species
is
too
great;
it
is
morally
dangerous;
for
it
brings
with
it
the
temptation
to
look
on
the
thing
found
as
your
own
possession,
all
but
your
own
creation;
to
pride
yourself
on
it,
as
if
God
had
not
known
it
for
ages
since;
even
to
squabble
jealously
for
the
right
of
having
it
named
after
you,
and
of
being
recorded
in
the
Transactions
of
I-know-not-what
Society
as
its
first
discoverer:—
as
if
all
the
angels
in
heaven
had
not
been
admiring
it,
long
before
you
were
born
or
thought
of.
But
to
be
forewarned
is
to
be
forearmed;
and
I
seriously
counsel
you
to
try
if
you
cannot
find
something
new
this
summer
along
the
coast
to
which
you
are
going.
There
is
no
reason
why
you
should
not
be
so
successful
as
a
friend
of
mine
who,
with
a
very
slight
smattering
of
science,
and
very
desultory
research,
obtained
in
one
winter
from
the
Torbay
shores
three
entirely
new
species,
beside
several
rare
animals
which
had
escaped
all
naturalists
since
the
lynx-eye
of
Colonel
Montagu
discerned
them
forty
years
ago.
