Ever-busy

The Country is one huge Block of Sandstone, so many square miles of that material; ribbed, channelled, torn and quarried, in this manner, — by the everbusy elements, for a million of Ages past!

Of all the blessings which the study of nature brings to the patient observer, let none, perhaps, be classed higher than this; that the further he enters into those fairy gardens of life and birth, the more he learns the awful and yet most comfortable truth, that they do not belong to him, but to One greater, wiser, lovelier than he ; and as he stands, silent with awe, amid the pomp of Nature's everbusy rest, hears, as of old, ' the Word of the Lord God walking among the trees of the garden in the cool of the day.
