MAN'S DESTINY.

All human actions are ordained of God,

And for the common good: yet men see not

The strings that keep earth's puppets on the move;

But whine and whimper--wondering at the ways

By which unlook'd-for ends are brought about:

As blind imprisoned birds bruise out their lives

Against the cruel bars they cannot see.
