ONE OF THE SEVEN LAKES 



PiKE'S Peak sho7vs dimly in the hachground, more plainltj in 

 the rejlection. Viewed from the peak, the lakes sparkle like 

 opaline gems in the sun. The waters are so clear that an in- 

 verted world is seen in their transparent depths. The tmlley 

 is an elymim for many kinds of birds, most of them described 

 in the text. The white-crowned sparrows love the shores of 

 these beautiful lakes, which mirror the blithe forms of the birds. 

 The pine forests of the mountain sides are vocal with the 

 refrains of the hermit thrushes.
