Melody and Form.
Music and rhyme are among the ear¬ liest pleasures of the child, and. In the history of literature, poetry precedes proae. Everyone may see, aa he rldea on the highway through -n onlnterest- ing landscape, bow a little water In¬ stantly relieves the monotony, no mat- ><r what objects are near It—a gray rock, a graaa patch, an alder bnah, a stake—they become beautiful by being reJiecteil. It Is rhyme to the eye. and explains the charm of rhyme to the ear. Shadows please us aa still finer rhymes. Architecture glvea the like pleasure by the repetition of equal (larts In a colonnade, and a row of win- dow.i, or In wings; gardens by theaym- metric contraata of the heda and walka. —From Ralph Waldo Emerson'a Esaay m "Poetry and Imagination."
