A single rose, a gorgeous sunset, the intricate design of what had previously been an “ugly” insect—I cannot guess what she saw, but she saw. And in excitement and rapture, she cried out to her mate (whatever form of “marriage” they had in those days) “Oh, look at this, look!” and he looked and he saw. And beauty was created in a world that had been flat and dead and meaningless until that moment.

Thought:

“‘Tis bad enough, in man or woman,
To steal a goose from off a common;
But surely he’s without excuse
Who steals the common from the goose.”
