the Thoreau Log.
31 July 1858. Concord, Mass.

Thoreau writes in his journal:

  P.M.—To Flint’s Pond.

  I see much eriocaulon floating, with its mass of white roots uppermost, near the shore in Goose Pond. I suspect it may have been loosened up by the musquash, which either feeds on it, or merely makes its way through its dense mats . . .

(Journal, 11:66-67)
