- W4211156799 abstract "In his very widely read ‘moral survey of the heavens’, a reconciliation of a plurality of inhabited worlds with the principles of Trinitarian Christianity, the Hertfordshire parson Edward Young invoked angels as guides to the universal system. Important sources for this passage included the morning hymn from the fifth book of Paradise Lost, with its appeal to those ‘Sons of Light, / Angels, for ye behold him’. But Young’s were now Newtonian angels, so involved a rather specific spirit of celestial knowledge and piety. The verse’s sentiments addressed Pope’s Essay on Man, notably its celebrated reference to those ‘superior beings’ who ‘show’d a Newton as we show an Ape’. He also responded to a work to which Young subscribed, Henry Pemberton’s View of Sir Isaac Newton’s Philosophy (1728), which was prefaced by young Richard Glover’s verse on the angelic inspirations of Newtonian cosmology. Like many Augustan writers, Young conceded that rightly guessing the laws of motion had made Newton immortal. A bust of Newton stood in his elegant hall at Welwyn, with the motto Hic naturae clavis est.1" @default.
