228. Thoreau makes very few references to color Art • he writes almost exclusively of music. This was probably owing to the circumstances in which he was placed and his life of isolation in the woods, which did not present opportunities for the consideration of paint- ing and Architecture. The music of which he writes is also of the simplest character. A drum or a flute, the distant playing of a piano or music-box ; or — what gave him especial musical pleasure — the wind play- ing on the telegr...aph wires — the "telegraph-harp." ' t Summer, p. 258. ■ X Week, p. 549. II Winter, p. 172-3. § Week, p. 226. 49 As an expression of the eternal will, the very material of music lies outside of Time ; hence no history of music, prop- erly speaking, is possible : " Most lecturers preface their discourses on music with a history of music. It has no history more than God. It cir- culates and resounds for ever and only flows like sea or air. . . . I might as well try to write the history of my as- pirations.
