And calls th’ astonishing magnificence
Of unintelligent creation, poor.
For this, believe not me; no man believe: 1000
Trust not in words, but deeds; and deeds no less
Than those of the Supreme; nor His, a few;
Consult them all; consulted, all proclaim
Thy soul’s importance: tremble at thyself;
For whom Omnipotence has waked so long:
Has waked, and work’d, for ages; from the birth
Of Nature to this unbelieving hour.
