From other men he stands apart	A
Wrapped in sublimity of thought	B
Where futile fancies enter not	C
With starlike purpose pressing on	D
Where Agassiz and Audubon	D
Labored and sped that noble art	A
Yet in its pristine dawn	E
	-
Something to conquer to achieve	F
Makes life well worth the struggle hard	G
Its petty ills to disregard	G
In high endeavor day by day	H
With this incentive that he may	H
Somehow mankind the richer leave	F
When he has passed away	H
	-
Forest and field he treads alone	I
Finding companionship in birds	J
In reptiles rodents yea in herds	J
Of drowsy cattle fat and sleek	K
For these to him a language speak	K
To common multitudes unknown	I
As tones of classic Greek	K
	-
Unthinking creatures and untaught	H
They to his nature answer back	L
Something his fellow mortals lack	L
And oft educe from him the sigh	M
That they unnoticed soon must die	M
Leaving of their existence naught	H
To be remembered by	M
	-
Man may aspire though in the slough	N
May dream of glory strive for fame	O
Thirst for the prestige of a name	O
And shall these friends that so invite	H
The study of the erudite	H
Ever as he beholds them now	P
Perish like sparks of light	H
	-
Nay 'tis his purpose and design	Q
To keep them not like mummies old	H
Papyrus mantled fold on fold	H
But elephant or dove or swan	D
Its native hue and raiment on	D
In effigy of plumage fine	Q
Or skin its native tawn	Q
	-
What God hath wrought thus time shall tell	R
And thus endowment rich and vast	H
Be rescued from the buried past	H
And rare reliques that never fade	H
Be in the manikin portrayed	H
Till taxidermy witness well	R
The debt to science paid	H
	-
Lo one appeareth unforetold	H
This re creator yea of men	Q
Making him feel as born again	Q
Who looketh up with reverent eyes	S
Through wonders that his soul surprise	S
That great Creator to behold	H
All powerful all wise	S
