    We are more or less familiar, through casual observation, with the varied beauties of the dew. A walk in the country or park, in the early midsummer morning, just after the sun has risen, if possible, will enable you fully to (19)appreciate its charms; especially if the dewfall during the preceding night (20)have been a copious one. Every bit of plant-life and vegetation will sparkle and twinkle in the early sunshine, hung and embellished with millions of glittering jewels. (21)The smaller grass blade, you will discover, has not been neglected by the Dew Fairy. (22)And even the delicate, gossamer-like spider’s web swung from twig to twig or caught among the grasses, is dew laden, and an object of beauty well worthy of consideration. [B]

    Happy indeed are you, if you have enjoyed a stroll in an old-fashioned country flower garden in the early morning. No need to dwell upon its charms if you have enjoyed that pleasure, for you (23)will long remember the refreshment and peace which came to you with the close companionship of the great pink, damask roses, (24)their petals still heaviest with the night dews; the tall, sentinel-like lilies, cool and fragrant, their cups filled with dewy nectar, which great blundering bees were eagerly plundering; clean-smelling phlox, waist-high, each velvet cluster moist and bent with its weight of dew. [C]Then the beds of gray-green mignonette; and best of all, down in an out-of-the-way corner, a tangle of unobtrusive old-fashioned pinks, (25)where you knelt and bury your face for a moment (26)to allow them to inhale their spicy fragrance, and found them doubly sweet and satisfying after their drenching dew bath.[D] While the beds of simples and humbler things, the sage and wormwood, with their silvery leaves heavy with dew, exhaled a pungent, aromatic odour as you brushed them in passing. For the dew had (27)made them more and more refreshed and (28)enhance their dormant spiciness tenfold.
