    Can anyone help identify the following? Not sure where I heard or read it but it's in my brain and refuses to leave.

    It's something similar to this:

    I am the owner of the spheres,
    the seven stars and the solar year,
    Of Caesars hand and Plato's brain,
    Our saviours heart and Shakespears stain.

    I can't have imagined this... Help me!:pac:

    THE INFORMING SPIRIT

    I

    There is no great and no small
    To the Soul that maketh all:
    And where it cometh, all things are;
    And it cometh everywhere.

    II

    I am owner of the sphere,
    Of the seven stars and the solar year,
    Of Caesar's hand, and Plato's brain,
    Of Lord Christ's heart, and Shakspeare's strain.
