WILLIAM HERBERT CARRUTH
American educator, editor and poet
(1859 - 1924)

A fire-mist and a planet,
  A crystal and a cell,
    A jellyfish and a saurian,
      And caves where the cavemen dwell;
        Then a sense of law and beauty,
          And a face turned from the clod--
            Some call it Evolution,
              And others call it God.
      - Each in his Own Tongue [Evolution]

A picket frozen on duty--
  A mother starved for her brood--
    Socrates drinking the hemlock,
      And Jesus on the rood;
        And millions who, humble and nameless,
          The straight, hard pathway trod--
            Some call it Consecration,
              And others call it God.
      - Evolution [God]
