Read the following paragraph from John Muir's "The Calypso Borealis" and pay close attention to the
words in bold.
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
What tone is created by Muir's use of diction in this passage?
awestruck
ambivalent
concerned
irreverent
