That Very Law Which Moulds A Tear
And Bids It Trickle From Its Source,--
That Law Preserves The Earth A Sphere,
And Guides The Planets In Their Course.
That very law which moulds a tear
And bids it trickle from its source,--
That law preserves the earth a sphere,
And guides the planets in their course.
-- Samuel Rogers (1763-1855)
-- On a Tear
