The second disc features the track "All the Works of Nature Which Adorn the World", which is made up of eight chapters. In it, works of Lord Byron and Carl Sagan are quoted by guest narrators. Its title is reminiscent of a line in Mary Shelley’s novel “Frankenstein”: “… all the wondrous works with which Nature adorns her chosen dwelling-places”.
