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 toturn suae 

 Patere menti, ferre qui non sufficit 

 Mediocritatis conscientiam suee, 

 Judex iniquus, estimator est malus 

 Suique naturaeque ; nam reruin parens, 

 Libanda tantum quse venit mortalibus, 

 Nos scire pauca, multa mirari jubet. 



GROTIUS.
