 | The complete works, poetry and prose, of the Rev. Edward Young prefixed, a life of the author, by John Doran ... With eight illustrations on steel, and a portrait. In two volumes |  |
Two kinds of life has double-natured man,
And two of death: the last far more severe.
Life animal is nurtured by the sun;
Thrives on his bounties, triumphs in his beams.
Life rational subsists on higher food,
Triumphant in His beams who made the day.
When we leave that sun, and are left by this,
'The fate of all who die in stubborn guilt,)
'Tis utter darkness; strictly double death.
We sink by no judicial stroke of Heaven,
But Nature's course; as sure as plummets fall.
Since God or man must alter ere they meet,
(For light and darkness blend not in one sphere,)
'Tis manifest, Lorenzo! who must change.
