The proper Feelings iritJi which to see Nature. 



No two people see the same thing, and no person ever sees it 

 twice. But, I believe, we may all gain some idea of the glory 

 which each season brings some glimpses of the heaven of 

 beauty which ever surrounds us 'if we will seek for them 

 patiently and reverently. They cannot with some be learnt 

 at once, but, in degrees, are attainable by all ; but they are 

 attainable only upon this one condition, that we go to Nature 

 with a docile, loving spirit, without which nothing can be learnt. 

 If we go with any other feeling, we had much better stay in a 

 town amidst the congenial smoke, than profane Nature with the 

 pride of ignorance and the insolence of condescension.
