ATLANTIS
ATLANTIS IGNATIUS DONNELLY The world has made such comet-like advance
Lately on science we may almost hope
Before we die of sheer decay to learn
Something about our infancy; when lived
That great original broad-eyed sunken race
Whose knowledge like the sea-sustaining rocks
Hath formed the base of this world's fluctuous lore
--FESTUS.
