    From the grey sea-folk I have heard,
    Whose heart was no more broken
    Than the wings of a bird.

    Such a style,—so diversified and variegated! It is like the face of a country; it is like a New England landscape, with farmhouses and villages, and cultivated spots, and belts of forests and blueberry swamps round about, with the fragrance of shad-blossoms and violets on certain winds.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
