Dr. Dick tells us seventeen hundred millions of, glowing suns, many of them much larger than ours, have already been discovered. Our sun is attended by ten great worlds, of which this is one of the smallest, Neptune being 60 time's the size of the earth, Uran us 80, Saturn 1,100, and Jupiter 1,400 times the size of this world. These worlds are in .full view. We gaze on them every clear night. When viewed with powerful telescopes, they thrill us with wonder and flood us with bewildering edification, and anon, with a longing to fly away and visit them, ranging from world to world and exploring the wonders of omnipotence with adoring appreciation. On the hypothesis, which is quite plausible, that all these suns are attended by retinues of worlds, doubtless as large as ours, it gives us the enormous number of one billion, one hundred and seventy millions of bright, celestial worlds. Then when we consider the fact that while sweeping the celestial vaults with a powerful telescope, vast fields of Nebula, like the Milky Way, burst upon our astonished and enraptured vision, revealing an infinite multiplicity of worlds, so vastly distant as to beggar all efforts of astronomical instruments to disintegrate the nebulae and individualize the rolling worlds and blazing suns, countless systems, wheeling their precipitate flight in their appointed orbits through the immensity of trackless ether, encircling the throne of God, responsive to the Omnific mandate, overwhelming us with paradoxes, and astounding us with the irresistible conclusion that even these one billion, one hundred and seventy millions of worlds constitute but the suburbs of the celestial universe, fills and thrills us with bounding and irrepressible enthusiasm to spread the pinions of transfiguration glory and fly away on the long anticipated tours of exploring with enraptured wonder the glories of Omnipotence.
