To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Is it a reality in nature, or is it only an aspect of things which owes its origin entirely to the human mind? So far as this there can be no question, namely, that the forms, the figurings, the tracery, and the polish of surfaces, and the coloring in patterns — these things are real ; the only question there can be room for is this, Whether that ornamental meaning or value which we assign to them is also real, or whether it be factitious ? whether, as decorative^ it has a place in the purposes... of Nature, or is only an illusion con- stant and natural to man ?
294. If we were to take up this latter supposition, then the entire class of facts, attaching in different de- grees to all orders of beings, vegetable and animal, re- mains to be accounted for. If, in itself, decoration is nothing, then what is the purpose of those forms and colors which we thirik to be ornament ? The longer we look at any elaborately-ornamented species, the less inclined shall we be to surrender our instinctive feeling that ornament w ornament; that gay colors F 122 THE WORLD OP MIND.
