Things are where things are, and, as fate has willed,
So shall they be fulfilled.

And binding Nature fast in fate,
Left free the human will.

And twins ev'n from the birth are misery and man!

=Father.=

It is a wise father that knows his own child.

SHAKS.: _M. of Venice,_ Act ii., Sc. 2.

Father of all! in every age,
In every clime adored,
By saint, by savage, and by sage,
Jehovah, Jove, or Lord.
