Kindred Spirits by Asher B. Durand
William Cullen Bryant and Thomas Cole in Kaaterskill Clove.
Beloved Soul:
Mervyn said it like this: Love creation, it does not matter what. Love.
Wishing you Grace,
Noble
"To him who in love of Nature holds
Communion with her visible forms, she speaks
A various language; for his gayer hours
She has a voice of gladness, and a smile
And eloquence of beauty, and she glides
Into his darker musings, with a mild
And healing sympathy, that steals away
Their sharpness, ere he is aware."
WILLIAM CULLEN BRYANT (1794-1878) From “Thanatopsis”
