"Oh ! is there not some patriot in whose power 

 That best, that god-like luxury is plac'd 

 Of blessing thousands, thousands yet unborn, 

 Through late posterity ? Some large of soul 

 To cheer dejected industry ? To give 

 A double harvest to the pining swain, 

 And teach the lab 'ring hand the sweets of toil ? 

 Yes, there are such." THOMSON.
