They pore upon the heavens with wandering thought— More 'wildered as it wanders through the maze And intricate bright tangle of the stars — Until each soul recoils into itself.
Amazed, confounded, shrinking with a sigh, — Which sigh, interpreted aright, proclaims **How great, eternal, boundless and sublime!
And we, how frail and insignificant I — The merest dust upon the wings of time.
Which a rude breath, or the destroyer's finger.
Dislodges, and we pass and know not where I" Oh, man, in thy m...ost proud and pompous hour — Or in the feast among the costly bowls — Digitized by VjOOQIC 204 THE NEW PASTORAL.
Or throned npon ambition's dizzy top, Where slaves, unto your slightest bidding, fly As leaves before a gust — go boldly forth, And look upon the silence of the stars ; And though your frame be armoured up in gold.
Your great soul mailed in pride, their quiet light Shall dwindle you to nothing where you stand; Your arrogant spirit be a point so small.
That you shall tremble lest that God's own eye Shall not discern you, fluttering in the dust, And leave you there, eternally forgot!
