“For here the palms hold court; nowhere else on the broad earth is their glory unveiled as we see it: soft, plumy Jupatis dropping over the water, and fairy-light assaiso and bussús with their light-green vase-like forms, and great noble fan-leaved miritis looking down from their eighty-feet high columns, and others that we hardly notice at first, though they are nobles in their race.”
