A Sheet of very well fleck'd Marbl'd Paper being Apply'd as the others, did not cast any or its Distinct Colours upon the Wall; nor throw its Light upon it with an Equal Diffusion, but threw the Beams Unstain'd and Bright to this and that part of the Wall, as if it's Polish had given it the Nature of a specular Body.
We pass Fort Lyon lots of adobie houses limitless pasturage, appropriately fleck'd with those herds of cattle in due time the declining sun in the west a sky of limpid pearl over all and so evening on the great plains. Indeed through the whole of this journey, with all its shows and varieties, what most impress'd me, and will longest remain with me, are these same prairies.
And still the clear notes of the quail the quiver of leaf-shadows over the paper as I write the sky aloft, with white clouds, and the sun well declining to the west the swift darting of many sand-swallows coming and going, their holes in a neighboring marl-bank the odor of the cedar and oak, so palpable, as evening approaches perfume, color, the bronze-and-gold of nearly ripen'd wheat clover-fields, with honey-scent the well-up maize, with long and rustling leaves the great patches of thriving potatoes, dusky green, fleck'd all over with white blossoms the old, warty, venerable oak above me and ever, mix'd with the dual notes of the quail, the soughing of the wind through some near-by pines.
