Lines written in a copy of The Malay Archipelago4, given to a student at graduation, 1914.

__

The love of nature makes the whole world kin,

So East and west the gospel preached herein

Must stir the soul.

All living things his comrades were; he saw

The harmony which underlies all natural law,

Saw nature whole.

T. D. A. Cockerell [signature]
