Excerpt from Shelley's View of Nature Contrasted With Darwin's

In the Iliad and the Odyssey we find the aspects of the visible universe personified in a thousand and one shapes of plastic beauty. The vivifying power and splendour of the sun radiates through the limbs of Apollo shaggy breasted Pan is the expression of lush-teeming forest life, and the fatal allurement of lapping waters murmurs. For ever in the sweet-voiced sirens. (the manifestations of the inorganic world are regarded, by Homer for example, as synonymous with human nature; and the gods, demi-gods, titans, nereids, dryads, and fauns, which represent sky, clouds, ocean, rivers, and forests.
