Purdy is able to tell us about the value of nature, like Wagamese, in each place and why these are sacred to remember in more of a sad and raw way than Wagamese's poem. He states how when you “say the names” you can “listen to yourself, an echo in the mountains” showcasing the meaning that the names bring with stating them.
