                                Which trim the Sphaeres, doe in their Motions run<lb/>
                                To no more purpose, then to please our Sights.<lb/>

                                Can I suppose the Hand of God displayes<lb/>
                                Those many Starres, we nightly gaze upon:<lb/>
                                For, both by Reason, and by Common-sense<lb/>
                                We know (and often feele) that from above<lb/>
                                The Planets have, on us, an Influence;<lb/>
                                And, that our Bodies varie, as they move.<lb/>
                                Moreover, Holy Writ inferres, that these<lb/>
                                Have some such pow'r; ev'n in those Places, where<lb/>

                                Which, Starres of much inferiour Nature are.<lb/>
                                Yet, hence conclude not, therefore, that the Minde<lb/>
                                Is by the Starres constrained to obey<lb/>
                                Their Influence; or, so by them inclin'd,<lb/>
                                That, by no meanes resist the same we may.<lb/>
                                For, though they forme the Bodies temp'rature,<lb/>
                                (And though the Minde inclineth after that)<lb/>
                                By Grace, another Temper we procure,<lb/>
                                Which guides the Motions of Supposed Fate.<lb/>
                                The Soule of Man is nobler then the Sphaeres;<lb/>
                                And, if it gaine the Place which may be had,<lb/>
                                Not here alone on Earth, the Rule it beares,<lb/>
