See skulking Truth to her old cavern fledAlexander Pope, (1688-1744)
Mountains of Casuistry heap'd o'er her head!
Philosophy, that lean'd on Heav'n before
Shrinks to her second cause, and is no more.
Physic of Metaphysic begs defence
And Metaphysic calls for aid on Sense!
See Mystery to Mathematics fly!
