Manti and Escalante: Beauty and Strengthened Friendships

"Cold winds can never freeze, nor thunder sour

The cup of cheer that Beauty draws for me

Out of those Azure heavens and this green earth --

I drink and drink, and thirst the more I see."

::: Seeking Beauty by William Henry Davies :::

"A smooth and steadfast mind,

Gentle thoughts and calm desires,

Hearts with equal love combined,

Kindle never-dying fires."

:::The Unfading Beauty by Thomas Carew:::
