Explore "The Thaw" by Henry David Thoreau on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
I saw the civil sun drying earth's tears, / Her tears of joy that only faster flowed.
Fain would I stretch me by the highway side / To thaw and trickle with the melting snow;
That mingled, soul and body, with the tide, / I too may through the pores of nature flow.
