Explore "Sic Vita" by Henry David Thoreau on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
‘It is but thin soil where we stand; I have felt my roots in a / richer ere this. I have seen a bunch of violets in a glass vase, / tied loosely with a straw, which reminded me of myself. ' -- _The / Week._
I am a parcel of vain strivings tied / By a chance bond together, / Dangling this way and that, their links / Were made so loose and wide, / Methinks, / For milder weather.
