The finer sentiment which we propose to consider here is primarily of two kinds: the sentiment of the beautiful. Being moved by the either is agreeable, but in a very different way. A view of a description of a raging storm or a description by Milton of the the other hand, a view of flower-filled meadows, valleys with elysium or Homer's description of the belt of Venus cause an sense of the sublime to receive the first impression adequately and a sense of the beautiful to enjoy the latter fully. Great oak trees and lovely spots in a sacred grove are sublime. Beds of flowers, low hedges and trees trimmed into shape are beautiful. The night is sublime while the day is beautiful. Temperaments which have a sense for the sublime will be drawn toward elevated sentiments regarding friendship, contempt for the world and toward eternity, by the quiet silence of a summer evening when the twinkling light of the stars breaks through the shadows of the night and a lovely moon is visible. the glowing day inspires busy effort and a sense of joy. The sublime moves; the expression of a person experiencing the full sense of the sublime is serious of the beautiful reveals itself in the shining gaiety of the eyes, by smiling and even by some terror or melancholia, in some cases merely by quiet admiration and in still others by the beauty which is spread over a sublime place. The first I want to call the terrible sublime, the second the noble, and the third the magnificent. Deep loneliness is sublime, but a terrifying way. The sublime must always be large; the beautiful may be small. The sublime must be simple;the beautiful may be decorated and depth; but the latter is accompanied by the sense of terror, the former by admiration. Hence the one may be terrible sublime, the other noble. A long duration is sublime. If it concerns past time it is noble, if anticipated as an indeterminable future, it has something terrifying.
