“I, who had heard of music in the spheres,
But not of speech in stars, began to muse:
But turning to my God, whose ministers
The stars and all things are; If I refuse,
Dread Lord, said I, so oft my good;
Then I refuse not evn with blood
To wash away my stubborn thought:
For I will do or suffer what I ought.”
—George Herbert (15931633)
