the Thoreau Log.
12 November 1852. Concord, Mass.

Thoreau writes in his journal:

  4 P.M.—To Cliffs.

  It clears up. A very bright rainbow. Three reds and greens. I see its foot within half a mile in the southeast, heightening the green of the pines. From Fair Haven Hill, I see a very distant, long, low dark-blue cloud, still left, in the northwest horizon beyond the mountains . . .

(Journal, 4:411-412)
