NATURAL HISTORY.

CONDUCTED BY

EDWARD NEWMAN, F.L.S., MEMB. IMP. L.-C. ACAD.

If in the field I meet a smiling flower,
Methinks it whispers, "God created me,
And I to Him devote my little hour

In lonely sweetness and humility."

If, where the forest's darkest shadows lower,
A serpent quick and venomous I see,
It seems to say, "I too extol the power

Of Him who caused me at his will to be."
The fountain purling, and the river strong,

The rocks, the trees, the mountains, raise one song,

64

Glory to God" reechoes in mine ear:

FAITHLESS WERE I, IN WILFUL ERROR BLIND,

DID I NOT HIM IN ALL HIS CREATURES FIND,

HIS VOICE THROUGH HEAVEN, AND EARTH AND OCEAN HEAR.

JAMES MONTGOMERY.
