Afterwards, he said much about the religious thought of the Indians which is impossible to report in the ordinary way. Theirs is a religion without symbols, without prests, and without church; it is in pag. theism and finds God in waterfalls and starry skies; it is a religion more individus than Luther's and yet without bleakness. It differs from the nature worship Words worth expressed in iria lies on Tin- ter Abbey, being without the prac tical applications which Words worth gave it. It does not rise into poetry, or expression of tast kind; it is calmer. It cannot be readily described, for there is noth ing with which to compare it These negative comparisons were not made by Ohiyesa, who spoke directly, as one who understood.
