Some say tliat in the origin of things.
When all creation started into birth, The infant elements received a law, From which they swerve not since. That under foTCJ Of that controlling ordinance they move, And need not his immediate hand, who first Prescrib'd their course, to regulate it now.
Thus dream they, and contrive to save a God Th' encumbrance of his own concerns, and spare The great artificer of all that moves The stress of a continual act, the pain Of unremitted vigilance and care, As... too laborious and severe a task.
So man, the moth, is not afraid, it seems.
To span omnipotence, and measure might, That knows no measure, by the scanty rule And standa'-d of his own, that ii to-d^^^ THE TA8K.
And is not ere 'o-morrow's sun go down.
But how should matter occupy a charge, Dull as it is, and satisfy a law So fast in its demands, unless impell'd To ceaseless service by a ceaseless force, And under pressure of some conscious cause?
The Lord of all, himself through all diffua'd, Sustains, and is the life of all that lives.
