Présentation de l'éditeur

If it were required to know the position of the fruitdots or the character of the industuntt nothing could be easier than to ascertain it; hut if it is required that you be affected by ferns, that they amount to anything, signify anything to you, that they be another sacred scripture and revelation to you, helping to redeem your life, this end is not so easily accomplished Thoreau
