But chief , be steady in a noble end , And shew Mankind that Truth has yet a
friend . ' Tis mean for empty praise of wit to write , 175 As Foplings grin to show
their Teeth are white : To brand a doubtful folly with a smile , Or madly blaze

And know , immortal Truth fhall mock thy toil : Immortal Truth shall bid the shaft

Truth be your guide : disdain Ambition's call ; 335 And if you fall with Truth , you
greatly fall . ' Tis Virtue's native luftre that must shine ; The Poet can but set it in
his line : And who unmov'd with laughter can behold A fordid pebble meanly grac'

الصفحة 23 - Lives through all life, extends through all extent, Spreads undivided, operates unspent: Breathes in our soul, informs our mortal part, As full, as perfect, in a hair as heart; As full, as perfect, in vile man that mourns, As the rapt seraph that adores and burns: To him no high, no low, no great, no small; He fills, he bounds, connects, and equals all.
الصفحة 37 - As man, perhaps, the moment of his breath Receives the lurking principle of death; The young disease, that must subdue at length, Grows with his growth, and strengthens with his strength; So, cast and mingled with his very frame.
الصفحة 27 - The proper study of mankind is Man. Plac'd on this isthmus of a middle state, A being darkly wise and rudely great: With too much knowledge for the Sceptic side, With too much weakness for the Stoic's pride, He hangs between, in doubt to act or rest; In doubt to deem himself a God or Beast; In doubt his mind or body to prefer; Born but to die, and reas'ning but to err...
الصفحة 18 - Were we to press, inferior might on ours; Or in the full creation leave a void, Where, one step broken, the great scale's destroy'd: From Nature's chain whatever link you strike, Tenth, or ten thousandth, breaks the chain alike. And, if each system in gradation roll Alike essential to th' amazing whole, The least confusion but in one, not all That system only, but the whole must fall.
الصفحة 43 - Ask where's the North? at York, 'tis on the Tweed; In Scotland, at the Orcades ; and there, At Greenland, Zembla, or the Lord knows where.
الصفحة 42 - Fools ! who from hence into the notion fall, That vice or virtue there is none at all. If white and black blend, soften, and unite A thousand ways, is there no black or white ? Ask your own heart, and nothing is so plain ; 'Tis to mistake them, costs the time and pain.
الصفحة 15 - Mark how it mounts to man's imperial race, From the green myriads in the peopled...
الصفحة 87 - Heroes are much the same, the point's agreed, From Macedonia's madman to the Swede ; The whole strange purpose of their lives, to find Or make an enemy of all mankind!
الصفحة 187 - Consult the Genius of the Place in all; That tells the Waters or to rise, or fall; Or helps th...
الصفحة 9 - Lo, the poor Indian! whose untutor'd mind Sees God in clouds, or hears him in the wind; His soul, proud science never taught to stray Far as the solar walk, or milky way...
