read the excerpt from muir's essay "calypso borealis" and answer the question.

[5] how long i sat beside calypso i don't know. hunger and weariness vanished, and only after the sun was low in the west i splashed on through the swamp, strong and exhilarated as if never more to feel any mortal care. at length i saw maple woods on a hill and found a log house. i was gladly received. "where ha ye come fra? the swamp, that awfu' swamp. what were ye doin' there? " etc. "mony a puir body has been lost in that muckle, cauld, dreary bog and never been found." when i told her i had entered it in search of plants and had been in it all day, she wondered how plants could draw me to these awful places, and said, "it's god's mercy ye ever got out."

examine the details muir includes in this paragraph, including the log house owner's word choice. choose the statement that accurately describes her view of nature.

nature is something to be admired.
nature is something to be endured.
nature is something to be feared.
nature is something to be protected.
