Thoreau Escape Room

30:00

My furniture, part of which I made myself, and the rest cost me nothing of which I have not rendered an account, consisted of a bed, a table, a desk, three chairs, a looking-glass three inches in diameter, a pair of tongs and andirons, a kettle, a skillet, and a frying-pan, a dipper, a wash-bowl, two knives and forks, three plates, one cup, one spoon, a jug for oil, a jug for molasses, and a japanned lamp. None is so poor that he need sit on a pumpkin. Furniture! Thank God, I can sit and I can stand without the aid of a furniture warehouse.... Indeed, the more you have of such things the poorer you are...Pray, for what do we move ever but to get rid of our furniture?

Welcome!
