SCIENCE.

While bright-eyed Science watches round.

_Ode for Music: Chorus_. T. GRAY.

There live, alas! of heaven-directed mien,

Of cultured soul, and sapient eye serene,

Who hail thee, Man! the pilgrim of a day,

Spouse of the worm, and brother of the clay,

* * * * *

O Star-eyed Science! hast thou wandered there,

To waft us home the message of despair?

_Pleasures of Hope_. T. CAMPBELL.

One science only will one genius fit,

So vast is art, so narrow human wit.

_Essay on Criticism, Pt. I_. A. POPE.

By the glare of false science betrayed,

That leads to bewilder, and dazzles to blind.

_The Hermit_. J. BEATTIE.

I value science--none can prize it more,

It gives ten thousand motives to adore:

Be it religious, as it ought to be,

The heart it humbles, and it bows the knee.

_The Microcosm: Christian Science_. A. COLES.
