160 Poztry . Decrepit age , like infancy and juvenility / is a fixed term , and incapable , generally speaking , of extension . In the fifth chapter commences the Exposition of the processes
of life and the influence of physical and moral agents upon them / and continues to the end of the volume . The difficulty of making this exposition sufficiently clear without the actual demonstration of the objects , has been successfully grappled with , by means of numerous and wellrexecuted drawings , which , although some of them are necessarily on a very reduced scale , are yet so distinct and well arranged as to accomplish all that was practicable .
. The nature of the subject , and the scanty space we can assign to it , prevent our doing more than earnestly directing the attention of our readers to a work which , when completed , will give its author no mean place among the beneficent instructors of mankind . The subject of it is necessarily a study ; but the combination of the manner in which it is here treated , with its universal importance , will , we hope , render it increasingly a popular study .

BY THE AUTHOR OF CORN LAW RHYMES . 1 . A THUNDER STORM IN WINTER . He spake to eye and ear ! and , like a tree Rooted in heaven , shot down the branchy flame , ^ While the blue moonlight vanished suddenly . Brighter than light on snow the brightness came , Filling the vales with forests of strange fire , The streams with blood ; and flinging o ' er the cloud Banners of crimson , laced with silver wire . Down to mute earth the giant darkness bowed , Giving the hill immeasurable height , That propped the sky ; then changed the troubled form , While from his bosom fell the headlong weight Of vollied hail ; and whispering through the storm , The thunder spake again : What fear ' st thou ? live , poor worm !
