streams, and humble winding rillsEach beast that ranges thro the wood.And every fish that cleaves the flood —With every insect, bird, and worm.Of every colour, every form,That skims the air, or fills the sod, —These, these are all the works of God.Nor these alone — the angel bandsAre fashioned by… … Writhe not your limbs in every shapeOf awkward gesture, like an ape.
