Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Sing from Puddingstone Park (Boston, Massachusetts) with Oliver Wendell Holmes quote from The Professor at the Breakfast Table (1859). Reads: "I wonder whether the boys (and girls) who live in Roxbury and Dorchester are ever moved to tears or filled with silent awe as they look upon the rocks and fragments of the "puddingstone" abounding in those localities.... a lump of puddingstone is a thing to look at, to think about, to dream upon, to go crazy with, to beat one's brains against. Look at that pebble in it. From what cliff was it broken? On what beach rolled by the waves of what ocean? How and when imbedded in soft ooze, which itself became stone, and by-and-by was lifted into bald summits and steep cliffs...?"
