Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Notes From Nature's Lyre
Ankind owes an inestimable debt to God for His terrestrial gifts which sur round us, as well as for His heavenly ones which are to come. In the preparation for the enjoying of the future ones the logical way is to notice and appreciate those which now exist. It is not well for even the most ambitious to overlook in scorn the caterpillar of earthly graces while putting forth his ut most efforts in attempting to grasp the ?ee ing butter?y Of the future. The one is the gradual development of the other, and that which has grown slowly is generally more perfectly formed than that which has devel oped quickly. But aside from its obligatory character - and man is rarely inclined to meet an obligation - there is a something innate in every one that prompts a study of nature, an irresistible drawing toward the beauty and wonderfulness of creation. And if a man so neglect this incentive as to give the natural beauties of his home but a Cursory glance.
