 10   10|         where in the spring, the ice being warmed by the heat
 11   10|        cutting holes through the ice in order to catch pickerel,
 12   10|     tossed my axe back on to the ice, but, as if some evil genius
 13   10|     curiosity, I lay down on the ice and looked through the hole,
 14   10|         directly over it with an ice chisel which I had, and
 15   10|     independent of the luxury of ice.~ ~

 21   10|        He sawed a channel in the ice toward the shore, and hauled
 22   10|          along and out on to the ice with oxen; but, before he

 24   14|        can lie at your length on ice only an inch thick, like
 25   14|        for them to make. But the ice itself is the object of
 26   14|       from the bottom; while the ice is as yet comparatively
 27   14|    reflected in them through the ice. There may be thirty or
 28   14|          also already within the ice narrow oblong perpendicular
 29   14|       upward; or oftener, if the ice is quite fresh, minute spherical
 30   14|      beads. But these within the ice are not so numerous nor
 31   14|          try the strength of the ice, and those which broke through
 32   14|           though an inch more of ice had formed, as I could see
 33   14|       like an Indian summer, the ice was not now transparent,
 34   14|     cleavages. The beauty of the ice was gone, and it was too
 35   14|  occupied with regard to the new ice, I broke out a cake containing
 36   14|        it bottom upward. The new ice had formed around and under
 37   14|          was wholly in the lower ice, but close against the upper,
 38   14|    directly under the bubble the ice was melted with great regularity
 39   14|        and probably there was no ice at all under the largest
 40   14|         the under surface of the ice were now frozen in likewise,
 41   14|      like a burning-glass on the ice beneath to melt and rot
 42   14|     which contribute to make the ice crack and whoop.~ ~

 44   15|        among the pines; when the ice and snow causing their limbs
 45   16| indeterminable distance over the ice, moving slowly about with
 46   16|      their cabins high above the ice, though none could be seen

 49   17|         snow, and then a foot of ice, and open a window under
 50   17|          the narrow holes in the ice, which were four or five
 51   17|         a foot or more above the ice, and tied a dry oak leaf
 52   17|          I see them lying on the ice, or in the well which the
 53   17|        the fisherman cuts in the ice, making a little hole to
 54   17|         it carefully, before the ice broke up, early in '46,
 55   17|        who have lain flat on the ice for a long time, looking
 56   17|         As I sounded through the ice I could determine the shape
 57   17|         thus discovered that the ice over a small space was two
 58   17|      pushing me out on a cake of ice to see it. It was a small
 59   17|       While I was surveying, the ice, which was sixteen inches
 60   17|          level cannot be used on ice. At one rod from the shore
 61   17|         a graduated staff on the ice, was three quarters of an
 62   17|  quarters of an inch, though the ice appeared firmly attached
 63   17|       shore and the third on the ice, and the sights were directed
 64   17|    latter, a rise or fall of the ice of an almost infinitesimal
 65   17|      four inches of water on the ice under a deep snow which
 66   17|     streams, which wore away the ice on every side, and contributed
 67   17|        it raised and floated the ice. This was somewhat like
 68   17|    freezing forms a fresh smooth ice over all, it is beautifully

 72   17|       cold January, and snow and ice are thick and solid, the
 73   17|          from the village to get ice to cool his summer drink;
 74   17|         every day to get out the ice. They divided it into cakes

 78   17|          for, either because the ice was found not to keep so
 79   17|       Like the water, the Walden ice, seen near at hand, has
 80   17|    easily tell it from the white ice of the river, or the merely
 81   17|           or the merely greenish ice of some ponds, a quarter
 82   17|          blue color of water and ice is due to the light and
 83   17|       transparent is the bluest. Ice is an interesting subject
 84   18|       wears away the surrounding ice. But such was not the effect
 85   18|         to melt or wear away the ice. I never knew it to open
 86   18|          in shallow water, under ice a foot thick, at 36'. This
 87   18|          sooner than Walden. The ice in the shallowest part was
 88   18|         been the warmest and the ice thinnest there. So, also,
 89   18|          its heat passes through ice a foot or more thick, and
 90   18|      melts the under side of the ice, at the same time that it

 92   18|          near to the surface the ice over it is much thinner,
 93   18|        winter melts off the snow ice from Walden, and leaves
 94   18|         hard dark or transparent ice on the middle, there will
 95   18|      rotten though thicker white ice, a rod or more wide, about
 96   18|    bubbles themselves within the ice operate as burning-glasses
 97   18|      burning-glasses to melt the ice beneath.~ ~
 98   18|      cracking and booming of the ice indicate a change of temperature.

104   18|        part with a firm field of ice. It was a warm day, and
105   18|        to see so great a body of ice remaining. Not seeing any
106   18|         side, to await them. The ice was melted for three or
107   18|       that the whole body of the ice had started while he lay
108   18|        winged in its orbit. Even ice begins with delicate crystal
