Another view will still better illustrate all the influences 

 that conduce to Man's 



Welfare or Wealth. 



The ancients fabled that Time, personified as Saturn, was the 

 Father of all things, or Nature. 



Man, composed of Mind and Body, being introduced, not 

 finding the world adapted to his liking, at once applied himself 

 to appropriate and improve Nature by his Labor, thus producing 

 Eiches with which to assist in satisfying both his Mental and 

 Physical wants. 



Thus, two by two, one material, the other immaterial, there

Whose joys a blooming wife endears, 



i hours a smiling offspring cheers.
