tiny, Understanding seeds. The
grand forests, with their shadowy
solitudes and wealth of verdure,
owe all their cool shade and rich
greenery to the tender-twisted leaf
of early Spring. We can even trace
the grandeur of the mighty ocean
with its awful voice and the white
terror of it's storm waves to the lit.
tie bubbling streams that ripple
through the quiet woods and sing to
the meadow flowers. In the Spring
time We may find in all things the
beauty and tenderness of this dawn,
ing life. Here are dark boughs with
their first delicate shoots, and
among them are the curious nests of
unfeathered birdlings. By and by

greenness bursts upon us, and how

boughs. All beginnings are feeble
and delicate, and only the mythical
