Passage I (10%)
Self-respect and a clear conscience are powerful components of integrity and are the basis
for enriching your relationships with others.
Integrity means you do what you do because it’s right and not just fashionable or politically
correct. A life of principle, of not succumbing to the seductive sirens of an easy morality, will
always win the day. It will take you forward into the 21st
century without having to check your
tracks in a rearview mirror.
Passage 2 (10%)
The simple perception of natural forms is a delight. The influence of the forms and actions
in nature is so needful to man, that, in its lowest functions, it seems to lie on the confines of
commodity and beauty. To the body and mind which have been cramped by noxious work or
company, nature is medicinal and restores their tone. The tradesman, the attorney comes out of the
din and craft of the street and sees the sky and the woods, and is a man again. In their eternal calm,
he finds himself. The health of the eye seems to demand a horizon. We are never tired, so long as
we can see far enough.
Passage 3 (20%)
Autumn Sunset
The sun sets on some retired meadow, where no house is visible, with all the glory and
splendour that it lavishes on cities, and, perchance, as it has never set before, —where there is but
a solitary marsh-hawk to have his wings gilded by it, or only a musquash looks out from his cabin,
and there is some little black-veined brook in the midst of the marsh, just beginning to meander,
winding slowly round a decaying stump. We walked in so pure and bright a light, gilding the
withered grass and leaves, so softly and serenely bright, I thought I had never bathed in such a
golden flood, without a ripple or a murmur to it. The west side of every wood and rising ground
gleamed like a boundary of Elysium, and the sun on our backs seemed like a gentle herdsman
driving us home at evening.
So we saunter toward the Holy Land, till one day the sun shall shine more brightly than ever
he has done, shall perchance shine into our minds and hems, and light up our whole lives with a
great awakening light, as warm and serene and golden as on a bank-side in autumn.
