Melancholy trees ! O but they are beautiful beautiful and gentle like a nun with a prayer quivering upon her lips, with her white fingers and her rosary sparkling from under her robe : and, lo, the aspens are all alike, as she and her holy sisters must needs be for the sake of their holiness. Sensitive to all the changes of the sky, the aspen reflects wondrous colour ; the leaves, like a million little mirrors, draw the blue and the purple from above and drink the orange from de- parting suns. ...And all the colour and the light blend in subtle harmonies like the precious pearls on the neck of a goddess. Ah! do they not pulsate My Friends the Trees 1 5 like the strings of beads on a maiden's breast? The vision is fleeting as it is beautiful; the colour upon the leaves, like that in the dews around, is surely spiritual. 3- The Profanity of Paint A> a painter, out-of-doors, the aspens are my despair, for they are surely beyond the limitations of paint. I once set my palette with bright colours with a grove of aspens in front of me : O, but when I looked up into all the mass of shimmering leaves, spread out like a garment in- woven with gems, flowing upon the breezes and toying with the rich dyes of heaven, I shut down my box, threw myself upon the grass and sat there in idle adoration, like a heathen before his B 17 1 8 The Profanity of Paint god.
