The Sonnets Of Tommaso Campanella - God Made And God Rules.

La fabbrica del mondo. The fabric of the world—earth, air, and skies— Each particle thereof and tiniest part Designed for special ends—proclaims the art Of an almighty Maker good and wise. Nathless the lawless brutes, our crimes and lies, The joys of vicious men, the good man's smart, All creatures swerving from their ends, impart Doubts that the Ruler is nor good nor wise. Can it then be that boundless Power, Love, Mind, Lets others reign, the while He takes repose? Hath He grown old, or hath He ceased to heed? Nay, one God made and rules: He shall unwind The tangled skein; the hidden law disclose, Whereby so many sinned in thought and deed.
