Excerpt from The Circle of Blessing: And Other Parables From Nature

Excerpt from The Circle of Blessing: And Other Parables From Nature

"There are two books," says Sir Thomas Browne, in his Religio Medici, "from whence I collect my divinity: besides that written one of God, another of his servant, Nature - that universal and public manuscript that lies expanded unto the eyes of all: those that never saw Him in the one have discovered Him in the other."
