Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Collection of Miscellaneous Pieces: In Prose and Verse "Oh, when to rest the wearied day retires, How, on God´s temple burn the unwasting fires." If there is any form of human pleasure more noble and exalted than all the rest, it is certainly that which arises from a contemplation of the heavens, and from a study of the Divinity in their holy fires. They present to the eye whatever is beautiful and attractive, as they burn and blazon on the bosom of creation, and the study of them affords to the human understanding a refined and lofty exercise. But if there were no other inducements to the love and contemplation of the bright worlds, than the sublime truths they tend to inculcate, and the powerful and persuasive testimony they bear to the existence of a ruling Providence, surely these would be enough.
