AUTOBIOGRAPHY of JAMES WHITCOMB RILEY "Nature gave him at his birth what most he values A passionate love for music, sculpture, painting; For poetry, the language of the gods; For all things here or grand, or beautiful The setting sun, a lake among the mountains, The light of an ingenuous countenance, And what transcends them all a noble action." Samuel Rogers
