Poem by Margaret Cavendish

A Warr with Atomes

Some factious Atomes will agree, combine,
They strive some form'd Body to unjoyne.
The Round beate out the Sharpe: the Long
The Flat do fight withall, thus all go wrong.
Those which make Motion Generall in their war,
By his direction they much stronger are. 

1. Motion Directs, While Atomes Dance
2. Of Loose Atomes
3. In the Center Atomes Never Separate
4. All Things Last, or Dissolve, According to the Composure of Atomes
5. The Weight of Atomes
