the Thoreau Log.
7 June 1858. Concord, Mass.

Thoreau writes in his journal:

  P.M.—To Walden . . .

  As I was wading in this Wyman meadow, looking for bullfrog-spawn, I saw a hole at the bottom, where it was six or eight inches deep, by the side of a mass of mud and weeds which rose just to the surface three or four feet from the shore . . .

  I sit in my boat in the twilight by the edge of the river . . .

(Journal, 10:482-486)
