For men led by the Colour, and the Shape,
Like Zeuxes Birds fly to the painted Grape;
Some things do through our Judgment pass
As through a Multiplying Glass.
And sometimes, if the Object be too far,
We take a Falling Meteor for a Star.

For men led by the Colour, and the Shape, Like Zeuxes Birds fly to the painted Grape; Some things do through our Judgment pass As through a Multiplying Glass. And sometimes, if the Object be too far, We take a Falling Meteor for a Star. - Abraham Cowley
