Read the excerpt from "Thoughts on the Works of Providence" by Phillie Wheatley and complete the sentence that follows.

Arise, my soul, on wings enraptur'd, rise

To praise the monarch of the earth and skies,

Whose goddess and beneficence appear

As round its centre moves the rolling year,

Or when the morning glows with rosy charms,

Or the sun slumbers in the ocean's arms:

Of light divine be a rich portion lent

To guide my soul, and favour my intent.
