The substance and the properties of man,
As they had seen him made,—aye and stood by
Spies on Heaven’s work. They also can discourse
Wisely, to prove that what must be must be,
And show how thoughts are jogg’d out of the brain
By a mechanical impulse; pushing on
The minds of us, poor unaccountables,
To fatal resolution. Know they not,
That in this mortal life, whate’er it be,
We take the path that leads to good or evil,
