He who beholds the natural world is bound to speak out and his speech is informed by what he beholds, it cannot be otherwise. Does he distinguish between the created world and the natural world? This is an interesting question. Birth is out of itself, creation out of another. And yet when we speak of the natural, born world we mean also the created world. An exciting connection is indicated by the English language between birth and berth, between being born and being borne. Not the sound but the letter distinguishes the two, remarkably in both cases. The mother gives birth to the child out of her womb and then gives it berth in her arms.
