I find myself touching this word Prairie. IS it in its ownright fascinative, or in the right of that far reach of emerald which suffers itself to wear the name? I remain agnostic here. In any case, the name is my delight. My lips refuse to hurry when they touch this word, but fondle it, lover-wise, lingering as loath to say good-bye; pronounc ing it Prai — rie, holding on the initial syllable as if some musical hold were written there.
