I believe that our estranged and divided ashes shall unite again; that our separated dust after so many pilgrimages and transformations into the parts of minerals, plants, animals, elements, shall at the voice of God return into their primitive shapes and join again to make up their primary and predestinate forms. As at the Creation there was a separation of that confused mass into its species, so at the destruction thereof there shall be a separation into its distinct individuals. As at the Creation of the world, all the distinct species that we behold lay involved in one mass till the fruitful voice of God separated this united multitude into its several species, so at the last day, when these corrupted reliques shall be scattered in the wilderness of forms and seem to have forgot their proper habits, God by a powerful voice shall command them back into their proper shapes and call them out by their single individuals. Then shall appear the fertility of Adam and the magic of that sperm that hath dilated into so many millions.
– Sir Thomas Browne, from Religio Medici (1642)
