Nothing is more beautiful than the loveliness of the
woods before sunrise.

That
man's best works should be such bungling imitations
of Nature's infinite perfection, matters not much;
but that he should make himself an imitation, this
is the fact which Nature moans over, and deprecates

through warbling birds, and whispering pines, and
roaring waves, and screeching winds.
-- Lydia M. Child
1802-1880, American
Abolitionist, Writer, Editor
Nature

too, have known autumn too long.
