At the bathing-place.

August 9.

River is risen and fuller, and the weeds at bathing-place washed away somewhat. Fall to them.

H. D. Thoreau, Journal, August 9, 1855

Fall to them. ... See September 24, 1854 (“These are the stages in the river fall... The water begins to be clear of weeds”)

August 9. See A Book of the Seasons, by Henry Thoreau, August 9

The week ahead in Henry’s journal
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.
