But motion and sound, circumstance and quality, yea, all things have their office.
The zephyr playing with an aspen-leaf,—the earthquake that rendeth a continent;
The moon-beam silvering a ruined arch,—the desert-wave dashing up a pyramid;
The thunder of jarring icebergs,—the stops of a shepherd's pipe;
The howl of the tiger in the glen,—and the wood-dove calling to her mate;
The vulture's cruel rage,—the grace of the stately swan;
The fierceness looking from the lynx's eye, and the dull stupor of the sloth:
To these, and to all, is there added each its USE, though man considereth it lightly;
For Power hath ordained nothing which Economy saw not needful.
