the Thoreau Log.
28 July 1852. Concord, Mass.

Thoreau writes in his journal:

  P.M.—To Yellow Pine Lake.

  Epilobium coloratum, roadside just this side of Dennis’s. Water lobelia, is it, that C. [William Ellery Channing] shows me? There is a vellowish light. now from a low, tufted, yellowish, broad-leaved grass, in fields that have been mown. A June-like, breezy air . . .

(Journal, 4:264-265)
