He did not embody in impassioned forms the sufferings, emotions, or problems of the human kind, but was disposed to generalize them, as in 'The Journey of Life, the 'Hymn of the City, and 'The Song of the Sower, it is characteristic that two of the longer poems, 'Sella' and 'The Little People of the Snow, which are narratives, deal with legends of an individual human life merging itself with the inner life of nature, under the form of imaginary beings who dwell in the snow or in water.
"Never mind about the peanuts and the pink lemonade." "Alla right," said the man, with a smile that showed what nice white teeth he had. "Me sella de balloon!"

In direct contrast to the subthyroid types is he who originally was hyperthyroid.
