the sun at midnight
A dog would laugh at us -- not that even a dog knows much ! And feeling ! We can feel too hot or too cold , and it sometimes makes us ill , or even kills us . But we ca n't feel the coming storm , or which is north and south , or where the new moon is , or the sun at midnight , or the stars at noon , or even what o'clock it is by our own measurement . We can not even find our way home blindfolded -- not even a pigeon can do that , nor a swallow , nor an owl ! Only a mole , or a blind man , perhaps , feebly groping with a stick , if he has already been that way before . And taste !
