Yet obviously wistful because granddaughter too. is much taken up with the glory and wonder dis- played by Nature about. It is to our mind one of Life's cardinal en- dowments, and sadly enough not bestowed upon every one. , Of this, William Blake. English artist and poet and great vision- ary gone these hundred years and more, put it this way: "The tree that moves some to tears of joy is in the eyes of others only a green thing that stands in the way. some see Nature all ridicule and de- formity . . . and some scarce see Nature at all. But to the eyes of a. man of imagination. Nature is Imagination itself." Another discerning writer of the old years says: "We stand reveal- ed to ourselves when we come in contact with Nature. She does not say: "Look at me!" so much as she quietly holds a mirror up before our faces so that we can look deep- ly into the soul of ourselves!" "if we are curious. Nature feeds our curiosity; if we are trusting and sympathetic. her great in- folding mother heart overwhehns us with its benign foresight and universality; if we are cynical, mean, crabbcd. she lets us hear the cry of the pack. the shriek of the dying and the crunching of bones. Alas. if we are timid and afraid. Terror lurlm in every shadow and Fear whispers in every rustle. Even a. garden worm becomes a hideous monster. was it not Thoreau who pointed out that 'a howling wil- dcmess almost never howls: the howling is chiefly in the imagina- tion of the-hearer?" "The more we see of Nature. the more we polish the mirror that reveals ourselves. If we be- long to the group that 'acarce see Nature at all.' we are limited in our vision. almost sightless. as it were."
