" The Lord of all, Himself through all diffused, 

 Sustains, and is the life of all that lives. 

 Nature is but a name for an effect 



Whose cause is God 



All are under One. One spirit His 

 Who bore the platted thorns with bleeding brows- 

 Rules universal Nature. Not a flower 

 But shows some touch, in freckle, streak, or stain, 

 Of his unrivall'd pencil. He inspires 

 Their balmy odours, and imparts their hues, 

 And bathes their eyes with nectar, and includes, 

 In grams as countless as the sea-side sands, 

 The forms with which He sprinkles all the earth. "
