Aufgeschauet liebewarm,

Trag' ihn in die blaue Ferne.

Chapter XIV:

-Uhland, "An den Tod."

We get a lengthy footnote from the author, regarding this passage: "how Human Improvement, rushing through civilisation, crushes in its march all who cannot grapple to its wheels", the author tells us: "You colonise the lands of the savage with the Anglo-Saxon,-you civilise that portion of THE EARTH; but is the SAVAGE civilised? He is exterminated! You accumulate machinery,-you increase the total of wealth; but what becomes of the labour you displace? One generation is sacrificed to the next. You diffuse knowledge,-and the world seems to grow brighter; but Discontent at Poverty replaces Ignorance, happy with its crust. Every improvement, every advancement in civilisation, injures some, to benefit others, and either cherishes the want of to-day, or prepares the revolution of to-morrow." -Stephen Montague.
