That immortality which Science denies
Cannot be admitted by those who are wise,
For if we give up and concede Immortality,
There's nothing to check its wide Universality.
The toad-stool and thistle, the donkey and bear
Must live on forever,--the Lord knows where.
I tell you, dear sir, that Science must wake up
And grapple these spooks to crush them, and break up
This world of delusion of Phil. D's and D.D's,
Who are all in the dark, as dear Huxley agrees,
Proud Huxley's "The Prince of Agnostics," you see,
And Huxley and I do sweetly agree.
