 "Philosophy, to an attentive ear, Clearly points out, not in one part alone, How Imitative Nature takes her course From the celestial mind, and from its art; And when her laws the Stagirite unfolds, Not many leaves scann'd o'er, observing well Thou shalt discover, that thy art on her Obsequious follows, as the learner treads In his instructor's steps; so that your art Deserves the name of second in descent From God."
