In the Centre Atomes never separate.

Just in the Centre is a point that's small,
Those Atomes that are there, are wedg'd in all,
They lye so close, and do so firmly bind,

For they are wreath'd so hard about that point,
As they become a Circle without joynt .
 

Without partition or separation, for it is but one.
