Pouter, tumbler and fantail are from the same source;
The racer and hack may be traced to one horse;
So men were developed from monkeys of course,
Which nobody can deny.

Originally published in The Origin of Species by Charles Darwin (1872)

I'm very fond of water:
It ever must delight
Each mother's son and daughter,—
When qualified aright.
