"Cunku ormanin icindeki isik, alisik oldugu isiktan cok farkliydi. Yesile ve kehribar rengine calan gunes isinlari yerdeki yapraklarin uzerinde canli, titresen benekler olusturuyor; agac govdeleri tarafindan kesin cizgilerle parca parca bolunuyordu. O gune kadar hic gormedigi, beyaz ya da gok mavisi cicekler, hic sonu yokmus gibi gorunen birbirine gecmis sarmasiklar; surada burada yari curumus, yesil kadifeden yosunlarla kaplanmis kutukler. Ve her yerde minik yaratiklar vardi. Her taraf sabahin telasiyla kosusturan bu yaratiklarin sesleriyle doluydu; bocekler, kuslar, sincaplar, karincalar ve gorunmeyen daha nice baska yaratiklar, hepsi nazikce kendi isleriyle ugrasiyorlar onun varligindan rahatsiz olmus gorunmuyorlardi."
"For the wood was full of light, entirely different from the light she was used to. It was green and amber and alive, quivering in splotches on the padded ground, fanning into sturdy stripes between the tree trunks. There were little flowers she did not recognize, white and palest blue; and endless tangled vines; and here and there a fallen log, half rotted but soft with patches of sweet green-velvet moss. And there were creatures everywhere. The air fairly hummed with their daybreak activity: beetles and birds and squirrels and ants, and countless other things unseen, all gentle and self-absorbed and not in the least alarming. There was even, she saw with satisfaction, the toad. It was squatting on a low stump and she might not have noticed it, for it looked more like a mushroom than a living creature sitting there. ”
