Beauty of sunset over the sea

From such a revelation of the beauties of nature the poor man derives as much pleasure as the choicest collection of paintings and sculptures and other works of art affords to the millionaire. Indeed, when we look with errant awe upon the sea and sky at the hour of sunset, it does not me strange to us that the great powers of nature were once worshipped as gods and the tranquilizing effect that the sea, especially in the evening, has upon the spectator enables us to understand how the ancients found it natural to go to the shore and pour out their sorrows to the sea, when the hearts were overburdened with care and no mortal being seemed capable of giving consolation. Wordsworth, he great English poet, felt and beautifully expressed this in his sonnet beginning. The world is too much with us in which he mourned the fact that most people had lost the power of appreciating the beauty of nature, by giving themselves up to business and worldly pleasure - late and soon.
