Several Occasions.
163
Yet far thy Glory would their Praise outshine,
Tho' Men and Angels in the Song should join;
For tho' this Earth with Skill divine is wrought,
Above the Guess of Man, or Angel's Thought,
Yet in the spacious Regions of the Skies
New Scenes unfold, and Worlds on Worlds arise,
There other Orbs, round other Suns advance,
Float on the Air, and run their mystic Dance;
And yet the Pow'r of thy Almighty Hand,
Can build another World from every Sand:
And tho' vain Man arraign thy high Decree;
All, all is just! what is, that ought to be.
