read the excerpt of john muir's "calypso borealis" and answer the question.

[3] but when the sun was getting low and everything seemed most bewildering and discouraging, i found beautiful calypso on the mossy bank of a stream, growing not in the ground but on a bed of yellow mosses in which its small white bulb had found a soft nest and from which its one leaf and one flower sprung. the flower was white and made the impression of the utmost simple purity like a snowflower. no other bloom was near it, for the bog a short distance below the surface was still frozen, and the water was ice cold. it seemed the most spiritual of all the flower people i had ever met. i sat down beside it and fairly cried for joy.

[4] it seems wonderful that so frail and lovely a plant has such power over human hearts. this calypso meeting happened some forty-five years ago, and it was more memorable and impressive than any of my meetings with human beings excepting, perhaps, emerson and one or two others. when i was leaving the university, professor j. d. butler said, "john, i would like to know what becomes of you, and i wish you would write me, say once a year, so i may keep you in sight." i wrote to the professor, telling him about this meeting with calypso, and he sent the letter to an eastern newspaper [the boston recorder] with some comments of his own. these, as far as i know, were the first of my words that appeared in print.

in a paragraph of 3–5 sentences, explain how muir views nature. support your answer with two examples from the passage. explain how each example reveals his view of nature.
