I have of late-but wherefore I know not-lost all my mirth, forgone all custom of exercises; and indeed it goes so heavily with my disposition, that this goodly frame the earth seems ot me a sterile proontory, this most excellent canopy the air, look you, this brave o'er-hanging firmament, this majestical roof fretted with golden fire, why it appearthe to me nothing but a fould and pestilent congregation of vapors. What a piece of work is a man, how noble n reason, how infinite in faculties, in form and moving how express and admirable, in action, how like an angel in apprehenstion, how like a god: the beauty of the world, the paragon of anmials. And yet to me, what is this quintessence of dust? Man delights not me.
