And move obedient at his awful nod;

Whence he beholds us vagrant emmets crawl

At random on this air-suspended ball

(Speck of creation): if he pour one breath,

The bubble breaks, and 'tis eternal death.

Thence issuing I behold (but mortal sight

Sustains not such a rushing sea of light!)

I see, on an empyreal flying throne

Sublimely rais'd, heaven's everlasting Son;

Crown'd with that majesty which form'd the world,
