Existence of a God.

Look on the broad and glorious face of
the sky, oh . Atheist! When suns are IN
their splendor, and innumerable worlds
wheel their ceaseless and eternal course
through the regions of infinite space
dost thou not there discover the hand of a
superior Power, pointing out their pathway
and upholding the structure of an august
universe? Look when clouds are there,
piled up in the awfulness of his grandeur,
and the lightning rides forth in the car
of destruction, listen to the roll of thun-
der and the rush Of the tempest as he
sweeps through the shuddering earth-seest
thou no God there? Hearest thou not his
voice and the roaring Of his chariot wheels?
Look on the bosom of the ocean when not
a breath disturbs its deeper repose, and it
lies stretched out like mirror rejecting
the armament of heaven-seest thou there
no traces Of the Deity? Look when the
spirit OF the deep has arisen in its anger );
when billow wars with billow; when the
mountain waves seem to mingle with the
sky and darkness filings its awful shroud
over the contending waters, leaving no
cheering ray to guide the helpless mariner
to his haven-seest thou there no being of
infinite power and greatness.
Look on the beautiful earth when she
puts on her rich robes of fruits and flow
ers, when the fragrance of all that is CRATE
full to the senses is in her nostrils, and her
voice is full of melodious hymning-dost
thou not there discern power of love, and
mercy, and holiness?
Look, when dreadful Winter comes
from the prison of the North, dealing out
ruin and terror, and covering the glorious
sky with angry frowns, and threatening;
all that is beautiful on the earth retires be-
fore him, and he rides on iumphantly,
marking his footsteps with grandeur and
desolation? Seestthou no august, no nigh
ty hand?
Look, yet once again, and behold the
creature that walks upright in the midst
of creation, and is master Of all that sur
rounds him; mark the Immortality beaming
from his countenance, and his look which
penetrates the skies. Then turn thy
thoughts within, and listen to the voice of
thine own bosom-observe all its workings,
@ts fears, its hopes, its susceptibility of the
most exquisite enjoyment and wretch
edness-its anxious thirst for still greater
knowledge-its earnest, constant, unobtain-
ed, and still buried in the mysterious fu-
cure. Above all, its convulsive clinging to
life, and its unutterable dread of ceasing
to the Atheist-art thou immortal and
is there not God ?

And smiles, lone child, on thee;
On earth dear as thou vert to hln,
Thrice dear in heaven thou'lt be.
Weep not! but humbly, gently bow
To Gods most holy VIII.
Oh calm the anguish Of thy heart
Its deep, deep sorrow still.
