Charles Darwins’ ” the origin of species (1985)

Analyze the language in the quote from Darwin’s origin of species (1895)?
This is how Charles Darwin concludes The Origin of Species (1859):

It is interesting to contemplate a tangled bank, clothed with many plants of many kinds, with birds singing on the bushes, with various insects flitting about, and with worms crawling through the damp earth, and to reflect that those elaborately constructed forms, so different from each other, and dependent upon each other in so complex a manner, have all been produced by laws acting around us. These laws, taken in the largest sense, being Growth and Reproduction… lead to a Struggle for Life, and as a consequence to Natural Selection, entailing Divergence of Character and the Extinction of less-improved forms. Thus, from the war of nature, from famine and death, the most exalted object which we are capable of conceiving, namely, the production of the higher animals, directly follows. There is grandeur in this view of life, with its several powers, having been originally breathed by the Creator into a few forms or into one: and that, whilst this planet has gone cycling on according to the fixed law of gravity, from so simple a beginning endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful have been, and are being evolved.

***analyze the language in the quote from Darwin’s origin of species.

Explain Darwin’s argument above and state the extent to which it justifies wars of aggression. Support your view with careful analysis of the “war of nature” as defined in Darwin’s paragraph.
