Psalm 92:5 O LORD, how great are your works! and your thoughts are very deep. A near connection of Sir David Brewster, but not a relative, who in former years often lived in his house, and formed one of the loving watchers by his death-bed, gives this characteristic and striking anecdote: "When we were living in his house at St. Andrew's, he was much occupied with the microscope, and, as was his custom, he used to sit up studying it after the rest of the household had gone to bed. I often crept back into the room on pretence of having letters to write or something to finish, just to watch him. After a little he would forget that I was there, and I have often seen him suddenly throw himself back in his chair, lift up his hands, and exclaim, 'Good God, good God! how marvellous are Thy works.' One Sunday morning I said to him that it had been given to him to show forth much of God's great and marvellous works, and he answered, 'Yes, and I have found them to be great and marvellous; and I have felt them to be His.'"
