it* 1*0 i& We speak of Mother Nature, but we do not discern the living truth behind our words. How few of us have the vis- ionofthisgreat brooding Mother, whose garment is the earth and sea, whose head is pillowed among the stars: she who, with death and sleep as her famil- iarshapes, soothes andrests all the wear- iness of the world, from the waning leaf 148 NATURE THOUGHTS to thebeating pulse, from the brief span of a human heart to the furrowing of granite browsby the uninterrupted sun, the ...hounds of rain and wind, andtheun- trammelled airs of heaven. ISh T* T»* There is no leaf of the forest that could not reveal mystery of form, mys- tery of colour, wonder of structure, sec- ret of growth, the law of harmony; that could not testify to birth, and change, and decay, and death; and what history tells us more? — that could not, to the inward ear, bring the sound of the south wind making a greenness in the woods of Spring, the west wind calling his brown and red flocks to the fold.
