As the variety does not give such reversions when cultivated in isolation, this sport was obviously due to some cross in the former year. In the same way I tried the white Jacob's ladder, Polemonium coeruleum album in the neighborhood of the blue-flowered species, the distance in this case being only 40 meters.
The astonishing reversions of fate make one think of the success which the opera "La Dame Blanche" had some years later. This charming work sang their own history to these nobles who were still smarting, and recalled to them their ruined past.
Departures from the human nature of the hereditary present are most frequently of the nature of reversions to an earlier variant of the type. This earlier variant is represented by the temperament which characterizes the primitive phase of peaceable savagery.
Solmes are enough to induce it. Do you, my Sister, for one moment, lay aside all prejudice, and compare the two men in their births, their educations, their persons, their understandings, their manners, their air, and their whole deportments; and in their fortunes too, taking in reversions; and then judge of both; yet, as I have frequently offered, I will live single with all my heart, if that will do.
Parental instinct regards childhood only. Handing on the torch of life. Adventitious functions assumed by the family. Inertia in human nature. Family tyrannies. Difficulty in abstracting from the family. Possibility of substitutes. Plato's heroic communism. Opposite modern tendencies. Individualism in a sense rational. The family tamed. Possible readjustments and reversions.
I reflected a few moments, trying to make out the deep significance to which Thorndyke was directing my attention and not succeeding very triumphantly. "You mean," I said, "that the occasional reversions to the earlier form convey some material suggestion?" "Yes; but more than that.
These uncertainties, these frequent reversions to a state of mind which at other times he seemed to have long outgrown, were a singular feature of his relations with Sidwell. Could such experiences consist with genuine love? Never had he felt more willing to answer the question with a negative.
Even his mount seemed to sense the pride of his master. It was a cream-colored mustang, not one of the lump-headed, bony-hipped species common to the ranges, but one of those rare reversions to the Spanish thoroughbreds from which the Western cow-pony is descended.
He did not, to be sure, take very much stock in the picture as it advanced, somewhat fitfully, with a good many reversions to its original state of sketch. It appeared to him always a slight and feeble representation of Cynthia, though, of course, a native politeness forbade him to express his disappointment.
After considering these rare instances of more widely known reversions, we may now examine the question of atavism from a broader point of view. But in doing so it should once more be remembered, that all cases of hybridism and also all varieties sporting annually or frequently, are to be wholly excluded.
