The UNIVERSE.
With Wonder view thy little World around;
How Life, in various Forms, does ev'ry where abound!
Earth, Water, Air, with living Creatures stor'd,
Myriads of Myriads, numberless, afford:

The crystal Flood, the briny raging Main,
The flow'ry Mead, the corn-producing Field,
The Forest wide, the frightful Desart wild,
The over-hanging Rock, the Cavern deep,
The sandy Beach, the lofty Mountain steep,
Swarm with Inhabitants.—In ev'ry Clime,
In ev'ry Season, and at ev'ry Time,
Each op'ning Flow'r, and ev'ry rising Grain,
The Life of Thousands does with Food sustain.
