Excerpt from Astronomy and General Physics Considered With Reference to Natural Theology

Now the peculiar point of view which at pre sent belongs to Natural Philosophy, and espe cially to the departments of it which have been most successfully cultivated, is, that nature, so far as it is an object of scientific research, is a collection of facts governed by laws: our know ledge of nature is our knowledge of laws; of laws of operation and connexion, of laws of suc cession and co-existence, among the various elements and appearances around us. And it must therefore here be our aim to Show how this View of the universe falls in with our con ception of the Divine Author, by whom we hold the universe to be made and governed.
