Such various forms, and gave it wings to fly?
Has matter innate motion? then each atom,
Asserting its indisputable right 1473
To dance, would form an universe of dust:
Has matter none? Then whence these glorious forms
And boundless flights, from shapeless, and reposed?
Has matter more than motion? Has it thought,
Judgment, and genius? Is it deeply learn’d
In mathematics? Has it framed such laws,
Which but to guess, a Newton made immortal?— 1480
