First Sentence

When it was my duty to consider what subject I would select for the six lectures ([Footnote] To Working Men, at the Museum of Practical Geology, 1863.) which I shall now have the pleasure of delivering to you, it occured to me that I could not do better than endeavour to put before you in a true light, or in what I might perhaps with more modesty call, that which I conceive myself to be the true light, the position of a book which has been more praised and more abused, perhaps, than any book which has appeared for some years;-I mean Mr. Darwin's work on the "Origin of Species".
