Those viewless beings, 
Whose mansion is the smallest particle 
Of the impassive atmosphere, 
Enjoy and live like man: 
And the minutest throb, 
That through their frame diffuses 
The slightest, faintest motion, 
Is fixed, and indispensable, 
As the majestic laws 
That rule yon rolling orbs. 
SHELLEY. 
Qui curiosus postulat totum suze 
Patere menti, ferre qui non sufficit 
Mediocritatis conscientiam sue, 
Judex iniquus, estimator est malus 
Suique natureque; nam rerum parens, 
Libanda tantum quie venit mortalibus, 
Nos scire pauca, multa mirari jubet. 
GROTIUS.
