238 HAND-BOOK OF ENGLISH LITERATURE.
Brutes graze the mountain-top, with faces prone, And eyes intent upon the scanty herb It yields them ; or, recumbent on its brow, Ruminate, heedless of the scene outspread Beneath, beyond, and stretching far away From inland regions to the distant main.
Man views it, and admires ; but rests content With what he views. The landscape has his praise, But not its Author. Unconcerned who formed The Paradise he sees, he finds it such, And such well pleased to find... it, asks no more.
Not so the mind that has been touched from Heaven, And in the school of sacred wisdom taught To read his wonders, in whose thought the world.
Fair as it is, existed ere it was.
Nor for its own sake merely, but for His Much more who fashioned it, he gives it praise — Praise that from earth resulting, as it ought.
To earth's acknowledged Sovereign, finds at once Its only just proprietor in Him.
The soul that sees Him, or receives sublimed New faculties, or learns at least to employ More worthily the powers she owned before, Discerns in all things what, with stupid gaze Of ignorance, till then she overlooked — A ray of heavenly light, gilding all forms Terrestrial in the vast and the minute ; The unambiguous footsteps of the God, Who gives its lustre to an insect's wing.
