Brasilien und die Brasilianer: In historischen und beschreibenden Skizzen dargestellt. Es singen: Leuchtend-stark gestürzte Vögel, die am frühen Morgen scheinen, die empfindlichen Pflanzenbäume anzurufen, um aus ihren Nächten zu erwachen. Es war für mich wirklich schwer zu erkennen, dass die wenig sensible Plant, die ich zu Hause als eine der empfindlichsten Ofexotika betrachtet hatte, hier in fast gigantischen Formen reproduziert wird. Seine Familie Aboundsin Brasilien und der Hain, der die Residenz von Herrn M. umgibt, sind tatsächlich aus Bäumen bestanden, die ihre Blätter ruhig in den Pfannen zusammenfalten, nur um von der Morgensonne an geweckt zu werden

Brazil and the Brazilians : portrayed in historical and descriptive sketches . es sing:bright-plumaged birds, that seem, in the early morning, to call onthe sensitive-plant trees to awake from their nights slumber. Itwas, indeed, hard for me to realize that the little sensitive-plantwhich I had looked upon at home as among the most delicate ofexotics is here reproduced in almost giant forms. Its family aboundsin Brazil, and the grove that surrounds the residence of Mr. M. isactually composed of trees which quietly fold their leaves in reposeat vespers, only to be awakened by the morning sun and the sing- 276 Brazil and the Brazilians. ing-birds. The city-friends of Mrs. M. used to offer their condo-lence that she was so far removed from society in that retired vale;but they were always cut short in their proffered sympathy by theinformation that no sense of loneliness prevailed in that sweetspot.
