The Gods of the Copybook Headings

(Part 2)

We were living in trees when they met us. They showed us each in turn,

That water would certainly wet us, as Fire would certainly burn:

But we found them lacking in Uplift, Vision, and Breadth of Mind,

So we left them to teach the Gorillas while we followed the March of Mankind.

Rudyard Kipling
