Its slow,

As't were the only living element
In all the church, so deep the stillness grew;

Give out an audible rustle, curling through

More hushed than death, though so much life was there.

THE DESIGN
Having proposed to write some pieces on Human Life and Manners, such as
(to use my Lord Bacon's expression) _come home to Men's Business and
Bosoms_, I thought it more satisfactory to begin with considering _Man_
in the abstract, his
_Nature_
and his _State_; since, to prove any moral
duty, to enforce any moral precept, or to examine the perfection or
imperfection of any creature whatsoever, it is necessary first to know
what _condition_ and _relation_ it is placed in, and what is the proper
end and purpose of its _being_.

Across the golden helm, each way,
Two taloned Sphinxes held their prey,
Song-drawn to slaughter:
And round the

A mingled breed of lion and flame,
Hot-eyed to tear that steed of fame
