Blind unbelief is sure to err
And scan His work in vain;
God is His own interpreter,
And He will make it plain.
Sends Nature forth the daughter of the skies... To dance on earth, and charm all human eyes.
William Cowperthen to the dance, and make the sober moon... witness of joys that shun the sights of noon.
William CowperHappy the bard, (if that fair name belong
To him that blends no fable with his song)
Whose lines uniting, by an honest art,
The faithful monitors and poets part,
Seek to delight, that they may mend mankind,
And while they captivate, inform the mind.
Still happier, if he till a thankful soil,
And fruit reward his honorable toil:
But happier far who comfort those that wait
To hear plain truth at Judah's hallow'd gate
