The Fairy-Land of Science
·
Arabella B. Buckley

And
now,
tell
me,
may
we
not
honestly
say,
that
the
invisible
waves
which
make
our
sunbeams,
are
wonderful
fairy
messengers
as
they
travel
eternally
and
unceasingly
across
space,
never
resting,
never
tiring
in
doing
the
work
of
our
world?
Little
as
we
have
been
able
to
learn
about
them
in
one
short
hour,
do
they
not
seem
to
you
worth
studying
and
worth
thinking
about,
as
we
look
at
the
beautiful
results
of
their
work?
The
ancient
Greeks
worshipped
the
sun,
and
condemned
to
death
one
of
their
greatest
philosophers,
named
Anaxagoras,
because
he
denied
that
it
was
a
god.
We
can
scarcely
wonder
at
this
when
we
see
what
the
sun
does
for
our
world;
but
we
know
that
it
is
a
huge
globe
made
of
gases
and
fiery
matter
and
not
a
god.
We
are
grateful
for
the
sun
instead
of
to
him,
and
surely
we
shall
look
at
him
with
new
interest,
now
that
we
can
picture
his
tiny
messengers,
the
sunbeams,
flitting
over
all
space,
falling
upon
our
earth,
giving
us
light
to
see
with,
and
beautiful
colours
to
enjoy,
warming
the
air
and
the
earth,
making
the
refreshing
rain,
and,
in
a
word,
filling
the
world
with
life
and
gladness.
