The Beauty of Nature!
I am the lover of uncontained and immortal beauty.
...One might think the atmosphere was made transparent with this design, to give man, in the heavenly bodies, the perpetual presence of the sublime. Seen in the street of cities, how great are they! If the stars could appear on night in a thousand years, how would men believe and adore; and preserve for many generations the remembrance of the city of God which had been shown! But every night comes out these envoys of beauty, and light the universe with their admonishing smile.
The stars awaken a certain reverence, because though always present, they are inaccessible; but all natural object make a kindred impression, when the mind is open to their influence.
NATURE never wears a mean appearance. Nature never became a toy to a wise spirit. The Flower, the animals, the mountains reflects the wisdom of his best hour, as much as they delighted the simplicity of his childhood.
...The Sun illuminates only the eyes of the man, but shines into the eyes and heart of the child.
... The lover of nature is he whose inward and outward senses are still adjusted to each other; who has retained the spirit of infancy even into the era on manhood.
I am the lover of uncontained and immortal beauty.
I am the one who sees the absorbs the true beauty of Nature.
I LOVE NATURE.
