Rustic Adornments , 
as a world in miniature, subject to influences the same in kind, however 
different in degree, to those which prevail in the economy of the great depths 
where God has hidden, as it were, many of His most wondrous handiworks, 
as He has also hidden knowledge of other kinds from us until we for ourselves 
search it out. 
Our little systems have their day ; 
They have their day, and cease to be 
They are but broken lights of Thee, 
And Thou, O Lord, art more than they.
