Plebian, Savage, Sage, or lord or fiend,
Man hath of justice and of right a cause.
Prior to all that e’er has contravened,
Or e’en to man’s existence, justice was.
Right would be right amid the wreck of laws:
’Tis so, and all ordaining Nature gives
Somewhere to live, to every child she has;
She gives, and to her bosom each receives,
Inducing it to love the spot whereon it lives.
