by Unknown

Thy hand the varied leaf designed,

And gave the bird its thrilling tone;

Thy power the dew-drop’s tints combined,

Till like the diamond’s blaze they shone.

Yes, dew-drops, leaves, and buds, and all,

The smallest, like the greatest things;

The sea’s vast space, the earth’s wide hall,

Alike proclaim Thee King of Kings.

Mrs. Opie.
