Beyond our globe the sanguine Mars displays 
 A strong reflection of primeval rays;  
 Next belted Jupiter far distant gleams,  
 Scarcely enlight’ned with the solar beams;  
 With four unfix’d receptacles of light,  
 He tours majestic thro’ the spacious height:  
 But farther yet the tardy Saturn lags,  
 And five attendant luminaries drags;  
 Investing with a double ring his pace,  
 He circles thro’ immensity of space. 
      These are thy wond’rous works, first Source of good!  
 Now more admir’d in being understood.
