“The character of the logger’s admiration is betrayed by his very mode of expressing it.... He admires the log, the carcass or corpse, more than the tree.... What right have you to celebrate the virtues of the man you murdered?”

Like a prismatic glass,
It takes the light and ranges
Through all the moods that pass;”
