Okay:

Some think THIS the beauty of the garden mars;
But some think THIS a sun, a moon, and stars.

"Light" mars the beauty of the garden? No. More earthly.

bugs

This thing all things devours;
Birds, beasts, trees, flowers;
Gnaws iron, bites steel;
Grinds hard stones to meal;
Slays king, ruins town,
And beats mountain down.

Clever, but no. Oooo now I'm starting to think of sun moon star bugs so it could work, but no that's not it.

how about

You have two coconuts and you want to find out how high they can be dropped from a 100 story building before they break. But you only have $1.50 and the elevator costs a dime each time you ride it.

How can you drop the coconuts to guarantee you will find the lowest floor they will break at, while starting and ending at floor 1?

Note: They break when dropped from the same height and they don't weaken from getting dropped.
