Thoreau's view of lakes
“A lake is the landscape’s most beautiful and expressive feature. It is Earth’s eye; looking into which the beholder measures the depth of his own nature.”
Walden, ‘The Ponds’
Creation is beautiful but corrupted
“Man…trusted God was love indeed
And love Creation’s final law –Tho’
Nature, red in tooth and claw
With ravine, shrek’d against his creed/”
Tennyson, In Memoriam
