Read the excerpt below:

"i like pond skating best by moonlight. the hollow among the hills will always have a bit of mist about it, let the sky be clear as it may. the moonlight, which seems so lucid and brilliant when you look up, is all pearl and smoke round the pond and the hills. the shore that was like iron under your heel as you came down to the ice is vague, when you look back at it from the center of the pond, as the memory of a dream. the motion is like flying in a dream; you float free and the world floats under you; your velocity is without effort and without accomplishment, for, speed as you may, you leave nothing behind and approach nothing."
