For forms of faith let graceless zealots fight; his can't be wrong whose life is in the right.
Alexander PopeAll nature mourns, the skies relent in showers; hushed are the birds, and closed the drooping flowers.
Alexander PopePresumptuous Man! the reason wouldst thou find,Why form'd so weak, so little, and so blind?First, if thou canst, the harder reason guess,Why form'd no weaker, blinder, and no less!Ask of thy mother earth, why oaks are madeTaller or stronger than the weeds they shade?Or ask of yonder argent fields above,Why Jove's Satellites are less than Jove?
Alexander Pope
