i go about to look at flowers and listen to the birds. there was a time when the beauty and the music were all within— and i sat and listened to my thoughts and there was a song in them. i sat for hours on rocks and wrestled with the melody which possessed me. i sat and listened by the hour to a positive though faint and distant music— not sung by any bird— nor vibrating any earthly harp. when you walked with a joy which knew not its own origin. when you were an organ of which the world was but one poor broken pipe— i lay long on the rocks foundered like a harp on the seashore–that knows not how it is dealt with. you sat on the earth as on a raft— listening to music that was not of the earth— but which ruled & arranged it. man should be the harp articulate.
