Pan's Pipes (Unabridged‪)‬

"Pan's Pipes" is a story by Robert Louis Stevenson: The world in which we live has been variously said and sung by the most ingenious poets and philosophers: these reducing it to formulæ and chemical ingredients, those striking the lyre in high-sounding measures for the handiwork of God. What experience supplies is of a mingled tissue, and the choosing mind has much to reject before it can get together the materials of a theory.
