Bishop Berkeley. 1684-1753
Westward the course of empire takes its way;[312:2]
The four first acts already past,
A fifth shall close the drama with the day:
Time's noblest offspring is the last.
On the Prospect of Planting Arts and Learning in America.
Our youth we can have but to-day,
We may always find time to grow old.
Can Love be controlled by Advice?[312:3]
[Tar water] is of a nature so mild and benign and proportioned to the human constitution, as to warm without heating, to cheer but not inebriate.[312:4]
Siris. Par. 217.
