Margaret Cavendish (Маргарет Кавендиш)

What Atomes Make Life

ALL pointed Atomes to Life do tend
Whether pointed all or at one end.
Or whether Round, are set like to a Ring;
Or whether Long, are roul'd as on a String.
Those which are pointed, straight, quick Motion give;
But those that bowe and bend, more dull do live.
For Life lives dull, or merrilie,
According as Sharpe Atomes be.
The Cause why things do live and dye,
Is, as the mixed Atomes lye. 

1. Motion Directs, While Atomes Dance
2. Of the Sympathy of Atomes
3. What Atomes Make the Wind Collick
4. Of Sharpe Atomes
5. All Things Last, or Dissolve, According to the Composure of Atomes
