116 MOSSES. 



I remember finding a famous mathematician standing 

 rapt in delight while beholding a group of rocks covered 

 with moss and lichens, and I have often seen little 

 children dance for joy at sight of a mossy hillock. 



" Why should greenness charm the eye 1 

 Such is God's good will ! " 



Surely, while we admire this exquisite portion of God's 

 handiwork, our hearts must break forth in the holy 

 song : " Oh, all ye green things upon earth, bless ye the 

 Lord ; praise him, and magnify him for ever."
