He got closer to the human heart than any and all other authors. To him nature was an open book, and he was so thoroughly in love with it, that he left no page unturned or un.o.bserved; from the primer page or the humblest creations of nature's lavish hand up through the countless and variegated specimens of her handiwork to the crowning production of her creative power, _man_--this son of genius penetrated all her secrets, delved all her depths, scaled her loftiest heights.

The heart of man, that secret repository of so many contending pa.s.sions; that cradle where the affections are rocked into life; that fountain whence so many varying emotions spring, that sea o'er which are swept the mult.i.tudinous pa.s.sions of life, was also to him an open page; the last and greatest chapter in nature's wonderful volume. He understood life in all its phases.
