One was the discovery of the earth: the other the discovery of the universe. Men were confined, like molluscs in their shells, by a belief that they occupied the centre of a comparatively small disk-some ventured to say a globe-which was poised in a mysterious way in the middle of a small system of heavenly bodies. The general feeling was that these heavenly bod ies were lamps hung on a not too remote ceiling for the purpose of lighting their ways. Then certain enterprising sailors-Vasco da Gama, Maghalaes, Columbus-brought home the news that the known world was only one side of an enormous globe, and that there were vast lands and great peo ples thousands of miles across the ocean.
