It was a summer afternoon by a lake in Indiana. At first, I sat reading a Book casually, and suddenly found several trees floating into the lake. I didn"t pay much attention to it at that time, only because of the occasional wind.
Gradually, however, I found that the situation was astonishing. After several hours, the trees were still carrying the small clouds unconsciously, as if they were an infinite cloud bank. All afternoon, all night, all over the place. The next day it was exactly the same. I was surprised and shocked.
那是一個夏天的長得不能再長的下午，在印第安那州的一個湖邊。我起先是不經意地坐著看書，忽然發現湖邊有幾棵樹正飄散入湖水裡。我當時沒有十分注意，只當是偶然風起所帶來的。

可是，漸漸地，我發現情況簡直令人吃驚。好幾個小時過去了，那些樹仍舊渾然不覺地，在飄送那些小型的雲朵，倒好像是一座無限的雲庫似的。整個下午，整個晚上，漫天都是那種東西。第二天情形完全一樣，我感到詫異和震撼。
