By Flatterers Besieged And So Obliging That

An Atheist Is But A Mad, Ridiculous Derider Of Piety, But A Hypocrite Makes A Sober Jest Of God And Religion; He Finds It Easier To Be Upon His Knees Than To Rise To A Good Action.

How Instinct Varies In The Grov'ling Swine.

The Sound Must Seem An Echo To The Sense.

Trace Science, Then, With Modesty Thy Guide, First Strip Off All Her Equipage Of Pride, Deduct What Is But Vanity Or Dress, Or Learning's Luxury Or Idleness, Or Tricks, To Show The Stretch Of The Human Brain Mere Curious Pleasure Or Ingenious Pain.

Go, Wiser Thou! And In Thy Scale Of Sense Weigh Thy Opinion Against Providence.
