Beauties of Land and Sea Cannot BE

expressive human words any fair
equivalent, any just translation of
such rare effects and sensations in the
world of nature as these? How shall
we interpret myriad shades of one

mand? How shall we put the feeling
and the ecstasy of nature into the for
mula of mental apprehension and into
the terms of literary expression:
1t Is as hopeless task as if one stood
as Interpreter beside some charming
poet of alien tongue and could catch
only here and there a word and could
render that word only by some uncouth
paraphrase or by some term of remote
or unaccePted meaning. What charm,
