Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Poetry of Creation, Vol. 1 of 8: In Eight Parts
The reasoner, on the' other side, upholds the more orthodox, and perhaps the more generally received Opinion, that our sun and the planets, differing, as some of the latter do, the one from the other, in the nature of their substance, and in other characteristics, were not moulded by the Almighty in the manner alluded to, but were separate and independent creations. At the same time, this theory fully admits that countless suns and mighty systems may have been created long before our own; nor does it contradict the geologist's statement that untold ages elapsed after the primal formation of our globe, ere it was fitted to be the habitation of God's masterpiece - the end of his creative energies - man.
