River rising.


September 14.

A. M. - - River still rising; at 4 P. M. one and an eighth inches higher than in morning.

H. D. Thoreau, Journal, September 14, 1860


See September 15, 1860 ("Thus it reached its height the third day after the rain; had risen on the morning of the third day about thirty inches on account of the rain of one day (the 12th).")

A journal, a book that shall contain a record of all your joy.
"A stone fruit. Each one yields me a thought." ~ H. D. Thoreau, March 28, 1859


I sit on this rock
wrestling with the melody
that possesses me.
