PSALM xliv:verse 10. ^-VISION, OR PICTURE OF HUMAN LIFE. His days are determined, the number of his months are loith thee, thou hast appointed his bounds that he can not pass. Job xiv: 5. For what is your life ? it is even a vapor, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away. Jam,es iv: 14. Vanity and vexation of spirit. Eccl. i: 14. [ Varied from, the vision of Mirza, by Addison.] Behold the multitude upon their march,Across the bridge upheld by many an arch ;All ranks, all ages, all degrees we find,All ills, all joys, attendant on mankind :Onward they press, but see, whereer they go,What numbers fall into the depths battle hurls its thousands
