Read the poem below and answer the question

Thou art the judge of man

Judging his plans and behaviour

Judging his speech and egotism

You are the patient Judge

Nations plan without having thee in view

They boast of their will

But soon you show them their follies

You are the patient Judge

Tomorrow and Tomorrow, go here and there

Time smiles and laughs

He frowns his face and consults with fate

You are the patient Judge
