"For should I speake rather like a Philosopher than a Christian, I 

 could not but agnize nature to bee admirable in all her workes, 

 wherein man doth owe unto her infinite, and those very great 

 thankes, in that shee hath accommodated and plentifully furnished 

 him with all things needfull for his use, as also in that shee hath 

 propagated (among all other) the horse, the most usefull for the 

 service of man, and who best acknowledgeth his Master." 



Thomas de Grey, 1651.
