i was curious, found the original work by darwin and then highlighted the corresponding green "plant" words from TRST (pages 126-127 in the UK first edition). they have been added here. most of the words match up, only in a few instances they don't. i haven't had the chance to go into it more deeply, to see whether it can be decoded, or if it even means anything at all, etc.
any other thoughts? |

| Interesting how that whole chunk in the middle is missing. |

I had no idea the Aquarium Fragment existed! I must track it down...
I was just about to ask about the Origin of Species. I can find no reason for all those plants in there. Neither portion of text seems to make any sense without the other, and neither the highlighted sections nor the spaces in between make any recogniseable kind of shape. I guess it was just a device my Hall to creep people out a bit (it worked on me *shiver*) and it must represent the Luxophage in some way, since it's inside the book and Eric makes no mention of the missing replaced words, but other than that I'm stumped. |
