Who, from the exhaustless granary of Heaven,
Receives the blessings so profusely given,
Looks with a curious eye on Nature’s face,
Forever beaming with a new-born grace,
And dares with impious voice aloud proclaim
He knows no Heaven but this—no God but Fame.
Lord, in refusing to acknowledge Thee,
Vain man denies his own reality;
But tho’ the boon of life he may receive
From God, and still affect to disbelieve,
