" The noblest employment of the mind of man is the study of the works of his Creator. 



" To him whom the science of nature delighteth, every object bringeth a proof of his God . 

 and every thing that proveth this giveth cause for adoration. 



"His mind is lifted up to Heaven every moment; his life is one continual act of 

 devotion. 



" Thou who seest the whole as admirable in parts, canst thou better employ thine eye than 

 in tracing out thy Creator's greatness in them ; thy mind, than in examining their 

 wonders ? 



" Wherein is knowledge but in the study of nature? 



" All other sciences are vain ; all other knowledge is boast ; lo! it is not necessary or hene- 

 cial to man, nor doth it make him more good or more honest. 



" Piety to thy God, and benevolence to thy fellow-creatures, are they not thy great duties? 

 What shall teach thee the one or what shall inform thee of the other, like unto the study 

 of His works? "
