It seems the portion of these unfinished creatures, in which nature has only as it were sketched in her work, and who seem vowed to endless youth, in testimony of the state of childhood they represent, a state transitory among the superior animals, but permanent with them.
'It was in this way, he tells us, 'that God, in His everlasting kindness, guided my feet in the flower of my youth, when about two and twenty years of age.
