“Man, know thyself!” All wisdom centres there;
To none man seems ignoble but to man.
Angels that grandeur men o'erlook admire;
How long shall human nature be their book,
Degenerate mortal, and unread by thee?
The beam dim Reason sheds shows wonders there;
What high contents, illustrious faculties!
But the grand comment, which displays at full
Our human height, scarce sever'd from Divine,
By Heaven composed, was publish'd on the cross.
