And tho’ you’re e’er so learn’d, e’er so wise,
By Arts Mechanick you will here be taught
More than Rome knew, or Grecian Sages thought.
Those Objects to your Senses he displays,
Which the Spectator of our Globe surveys;
The various Movements and the changing State.
Of Beings active and inanimate.
Whilst Bridges gives his Microcosm Laws,
What Bosom beats not in Invention’s Cause?
Who sees him work, but envies every Deed?
