Synopsis

Excerpt from The Microscope and Its Lessons: A Story of the Invisible World; With Pictorial Descriptions of Its Inhabitants

I have seen A curious child, who dwelt upon a tract Of inland ground, applying to his ear The convolutions of a smooth-lipped Shell To which, in Silence hushed, his very soul Listened intently; and his countenance soon Brightened with joy; for murmurings from Within Were heard, sonorous cadences! Whereby, To his belief, the monitor expressed Mysterious union with its native sea.

Even such a shell the universe itself IS to the ear of Faith.
