Their Maker in the rags. If skies are vast,

So gems are tiny: who shall choose between?

Who reads the riddle of the Universe?

All words! Thus, from his rock-wrought peeking-point

Out speers the hermit. “See, the sun is dead!”

It shines elsewhere. You from your tiny perch,

The corner of the corner of the earth,

Itself a speck in solar life; the sun,

For all I know, a speck among the stars,

Themselves one corporate molecule of space!—
