Let me get it for you.🏃

"Moose" and "Indian"

[Ruth]

Just before he consulted his memory and saw moose and Indians on that day in early May he said, "Now comes good sailing? He was probably thinking of the Maine woods. He had said of them, "What a place to live, what a place to die and be buried in! There certainly men would live forever, and laugh at death and the grave." Was he thinking of Umbazookskus, which "the Indian said [was] a dead stream with broad meadows, [that was] a good place for moose?" Thus, it is my assumption that on his deathbed, he was maybe recalling his adventures in Maine.

[Lily Rose]

I was referring to Allyson's senses.

Wow, I can tell Ruth has been reading up on Thoreau! 😁 Your answer is correct. I've often thought he must have been thinking of Maine, too.
