October and the mountains are waking from their short winter sleep. It is October, the month of the moving mists. Come and let us take a walk, not down Fleet Street with Dr. Johnson, but up a mountain side with Nature, nay, with God Himself. There is nothing to see, absolutely nothing at all. You know that there are trees on either hand of you, and that the undergrowth is bursting into the stars and delicate bells of its springtime bloom. But your knowledge of this is merely one of the services your memory does for you, for the mist has covered it all away from sight. You look behind you and your world is blotted out. You look in front of you, nay, you cannot look in front of you, for the mist lies as a veil, actually on your face. I breathed up a whole cloud this morning, Lynn remarked once.
