To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
He never listens to the thunder but he is re- minded of the Great Spirit, — it is his voice. To him Lhe lightning is less terrible than it is sublime; the [181] HENRY DAVID THOREAU rainbow less beautiful than it is wonderful; the sun less warm than it is glorious.
The savage dies and is buried; he sleeps with his forefathers, and before many winters his dust returns to dust again, and his body is mingled with the ele- ments. The civilized man can scarce sleep even in his grave. Not even there a...re the weary at rest, nor do the wicked cease from troubling. What with the ham- mering of stone, and the grating of bolts, the worms themselves are wellnigh deceived. Art rears his monu- ment. Learning contributes his epitaph, and Interest adds the "Carey fecit" as a salutary check upon the unearthly emotions which a perusal might otherwise excite.
A nation may be ever so civilized, and yet lack wis- dom. Wisdom is the result of education; and education being the bringing-out or development of that which is in man, by contact with the Not-me, — that is by Life, — is far SEufer in the hands of Nature than of Art, The savage may be, and often is a sage.
