Birds and Poets is a collection of essays by American naturalist and writer John Burroughs, originally published in 1877. The book explores Burroughs' love for birds and their significance in literature, particularly in the works of poets such as William Wordsworth and John Keats. Burroughs shares his observations and experiences of birdwatching, describing their habits, songs, and behaviors in detail. He also reflects on the role of birds in nature and the importance of preserving their habitats. The essays are written in a lyrical and contemplative style, blending science, poetry, and personal reflection. Birds and Poets is a classic work of nature writing and a tribute to the beauty and wonder of the natural world.The cow figures in Grecian mythology, and in the Oriental literature is treated as a sacred animal. ""The clouds are cows and the rain milk."" I remember what Herodotus says of the Egyptians' worship of heifers and steers; and in the traditions of the Celtic nations the cow is regarded as a divinity. In Norse mythology the milk of the cow Andhumbla afforded nourishment to the Frost giants, and it was she that licked into being and into shape a god, the father of Odin. If anything could lick a god into shape, certainly the cow could do it.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
