Chapter Peelers to Pelican Island of P by Brewer's Readers Handbook

Canto vi. Animals of all sorts increase. The dreamer is then transferred to a spot where he sees man; but it is man in his most savage state, cannibal man, untutored and savage. He tyrannizes over woman, as the weaker vessel, but in his lowest state retains one spark of deity-love.

Canto vii. Man dies, and what becomes of him? No particle remains to tell us, but we feel assured there is a rest, land everlasting rest, especially for those who lived yet knew no sin.

Canto viii. God has given man intelligence to enjoy and improve his condition; conscience to rebuke him for wrong-doing; a revelation to lead him into truth, and a redeemer to ransom him; but, alas! one looks abroad, and the question arises, “Lord God, why hast Thou made all men in vain?”

Canto ix. Nothing on earth can satisfy man’s aspirations. Heaven and earth may pass away, but that which thinks within us can never cease to be.
