[05:40.56]It was only in the eighteenth century
[05:46.44]that people in Europe began to think that mountains were beautiful.
[05:51.84]Before that time.
[05:55.55]mountains were feared by the inhabitants of the plain,
[06:00.15]and expecially by the townsmen,to whom they were wild,
[06:04.93]dangerous places in which one was easily lost or killed by terrible animals.
[06:11.83]Slowly,however,many of the people
[06:16.71]who were living comfortably in the town civilization began to grow tired of it.
[06:23.32]Man has many desires,
[06:27.42]some of which fight against each other;
[06:31.21]one of these is to explore the Unknown to look for mystery,
[06:37.51]for things which the reason cannot explain,
[06:41.08]for sights and sounds which produce in one a felling of fear or excitement.
[06:47.98]So,in the eighteenth century,
[06:51.98]people began to turn away from the man-made town to the untouched country
[06:57.57]and particularly,to places where it was dangerous rough and disorderly.
[06:56.57]Wild rocks and high mountains began to become popular for a holiday.
[07:02.86]Then,mountain-climbing began to grow popular as a sport.
[07:09.16]To some people,
[07:11.67]there is something greatly attractive about setting out to conquer a mountain;
[07:17.57]a struggle against Nature is finer than a battle against other human beings.
[07:24.47]And then,when you are at the top of a giant mountain,
[07:30.06]after a long and difficult climb,
[07:33.87]what a satisfactory reward it is
[07:37.55]to be able to look down over everything within sight!
[07:42.73]At such times,you feel nobler and purer than you can ever feel down below.
