He knows the secrets of the sea, of the woods and of the vineyard. They are simple and natural worlds, beautiful and varied. He prefers them to the concrete and hard worlds built by other men.

Like a positive parent he gives love at the moment of creation, bowing to the beautiful things that he originates.
