There Is Grandeur In This View Of Life

Vivaldi: 9 Concertos for Transverse Flute

There is grandeur
in this view of life,
with its several powers,
having been originally
breathed into a few forms
or into one; and that,
whilst this planet has gone
cycling on according to
the fixed law of gravity,
from so simple a beginning
endless forms most beautiful
and most wonderful
have been, and are being,
evolved.
--Charles Darwin
