Nature.

In man the understanding and mem.
ory correspond with idea and form.
Nature is a shadow, for Hqture is a
tyne and mark of the divine, a living
mirror, in which we behold pictures
of natural things, and tho shadow OF
Divinity, Nature, contains the idea
(form) as its cause and principle In
the same manner the representation
OF the object is the basis of under.
standing in the artist, and determines
his work. But in Nature the idea is in
truth the substance; for the idea is in
matter. producing countless forms in
eternal sltude.-Giordano Bruno.
