"[...]course, rejected by every reliable historian, and was first attributed to Galileo a hundred years after his death. M. Ponsard, in his play on the subject, succumbed to the extent of making his final scene end with Galileo "frappant du pied la terre," and crying, "pourtant elle tourne." Galileo's recantation was a far more subtle and tragically complicated affair than that. Even Landor succumbed to the easy method of making him display his entirely legendary scars to Milton. If these familiar pictures are not to be found in my poem, it may be well for me to assure the hasty reader that it is because I have endeavoured to present a more just picture. I have tried to suggest the complications of motive in this section by a series of letters passing between the characters chiefly concerned.

Blokker In its day this was an ambitious attempt at an epic poem, depicting the growth of astronomy in the face of great skepticism and outright hostility, through the careers of key figures in the birth of that science. The material is interesting and revealing, approaching each individual in turn with an intensely personal point of view.

As biography, it is too poetic; as poetry, it is too biographical. Still, an interesting read.
