Book Description
Excerpt from Physic and Physicians, Vol. 2 of 2: A Medical Sketch Book, Exhibiting the Public and Private Life of the Most Celebrated Medical Men of Former Days; With Memoirs of Eminent Living London Physicians and Surgeons The talent of Darwin was rather that of a painter or sculptor, than the talent of a poet. Accordingly, the greater part of his comparisons are taken from antique baa reliefs, cameos, &c. He revives, with grace and energy, the inanimate form of the mythological divinity, without stopping to employ whatever the pagan allegory might contain of dramatic or impassioned materials.
