Description
Excerpt from Fireside and Sunshine
I have been sitting still for full twenty minutes watching a mouse.
No one, not even its bitterest foe, can deny a mouse the epithet pretty. It is as pretty a thing as there is in nature. A mouse sitting up and washing its face is irresistibly charming. It cannot make an ugly movement. The rat is too large for sentiment: a greater, coarser, more terrible mouse; but the mouse is perfect. The rat is furtive, vindictive, suspicious, evil; the mouse is timid, coaxing, the most engaging little creature in the world to watch. The very run of a mouse is a miracle; it is here, it is there, ind you cannot account for the intervening space. A real mouse moves as much like a clock-work mouse as is possible; its feet (practically it has no legs) are invisible.
