The vision and the faculty divine;
Yet wanting the accomplishment of verse.
Every art and every faculty contemplates certain things as its principal objects.
This goodly frame, the earth, seems to me a sterile promontory; this most excellent canopy, the air, look you, this brave o'erhanging firmament, this majestical roof fretted with golden fire, why, it appears no other thing to me than a foul and pestilent congregation of vapours. What a piece of work is a man! how noble in reason! how infinite in faculty! in form and moving how express and admirable! in action how like an angel! in apprehension how like a god!
Respect the faculty that forms thy judgments.
