Excerpt from Transmigration

Writers of what have been called Utopian Romances need not accuse their rivals of plagiary, since they are all treading in the track of giants like Aristophanes and Swift. But it may be well to state that I had not read The Coming Race until these volumes were passing through the press, and that I have never seen Erewhon.

The idea of an experience of metempsychosis has dwelt in my mind since, walking with one of England's great poets on the terrace of Rydal Mount, in full sight of that ae'rial rock which he loved to greet at morn and leave last at even tide, he answered an inquiry of mine with the immortal words on the back of my title-page.
