"Of all inorganic substances, acting in their own proper<br />

nature, <strong>and</strong> without assistance or combination, water is the<br />

most wonderful. If we think of it as the source of all the<br />

changefulness <strong>and</strong> beauty which we have seen in the clouds;<br />

then as the instrument by which the earth we have con­<br />

templated was modelled into symmetry, <strong>and</strong> its crags chiselled<br />

into grace; then as, in the form of snow, it robes the moun­<br />

tains it has made, with the transcendent light which we could<br />

not have conceived if we had not seen then as it exists in<br />

the foam of the torrent, in the iris which spans it, in the<br />

morning mist which rises from it, in the deep crystalline pools<br />

which mirror its hanging shore, in the broad lake <strong>and</strong> glanc­<br />

ing river, finally, in that which is to all human minds the<br />

best emblem of unwearied, unconquerable power, the wild,<br />

various, fantastic, tameless unity of the sea; what shall we<br />

compare to this mighty, this universal element, for glory <strong>and</strong><br />

for beauty? Or how shall we follow its eternal cheerfulness<br />

of feeling? It is like trying to paint a soul."<br />
