Essay on Man.....

Submit -- In this, or any other sphere, 

Secure to be as blest as thou canst bear: 

Safe in the hand of one disposing Pow'r, 

Or in the natal, or the mortal hour. 

All Nature is but Art, 

Unknown to thee; 

All Chance, Direction, 

Which thou canst not see; 

All Discord, Harmony, not understood; 

All partial Evil, universal Good: 

And, spite of Pride, 

In erring Reason's spite, 

One truth is clear, .......

"Whatever IS, is RIGHT.

---  Alexander Pope in his "Essay on Man"
