  76. p. 15, line 1As God comes a loving bedfellow and sleeps at my side all night and close on the peep of the day,
  77. p. 15, line 31Swiftly arose and spread around me the peace and joy and knowledge that pass all the art and argument of the earth;
  78. p. 16, line 2And that all the men ever born are also my brothers . . . . and the women my sisters and lovers,
  79. p. 16, line 27O I perceive after all so many uttering tongues!

  81. p. 17, line 13The earth good, and the stars good, and their adjuncts all good.
  82. p. 17, line 15I am the mate and companion of people, all just as immortal and fathomless as myself;

  84. p. 19, line 16Twenty-eight young men, and all so friendly,
  85. p. 19, line 17Twenty-eight years of womanly life, and all so lonesome.
  86. p. 19, line 27Little streams passed all over their bodies.
  87. p. 20, line 6Each has his main-sledge . . . . they are all out . . . . there is a great heat in the fire.
  88. p. 20, line 21It seems to me more than all the print I have read in my life.
  89. p. 22, line 21The conductor beats time for the band and all the performers follow him,
  90. p. 23, line 19And these one and all tend inward to me, and I tend outward to them,
  91. p. 24, line 1Comrade of raftsmen and coalmen—comrade of all who shake hands and welcome to drink and meat;
  92. p. 24, line 14These are the thoughts of all men in all ages and lands, they are not original with me,
  93. p. 25, line 3And to all generals that lost engagements, and all overcome heroes, and the numberless unknown heroes equal to the greatest heroes known.
  94. p. 25, line 5It is for the wicked just the same as the righteous . . . . I make appointments with all,
  95. p. 25, line 23All I mark as my own you shall offset it with your own,
  96. p. 26, line 3In all people I see myself, none more and not one a barleycorn less,
  97. p. 26, line 7All are written to me, and I must get what the writing means.
  98. p. 26, line 14I reckon I behave no prouder than the level I plant my house by after all.
  99. p. 26, line 17And if each and all be aware I sit content.
  100. p. 27, line 30I am integral with you . . . . I too am of one phase and of all phases.
  101. p. 28, line 5I moisten the roots of all that has grown.
  102. p. 28, line 19One time as good as another time . . . . here or henceforward it is all the same to me.
  103. p. 29, line 12By God! I will accept nothing which all cannot have their counterpart of on the same terms.
  104. p. 30, line 17I dote on myself . . . . there is that lot of me, and all so luscious,
  105. p. 31, line 25I hear all sounds as they are tuned to their uses . . . . sounds of the city and sounds out of the city . . . . sounds of the day and night;
  106. p. 32, line 22I have instant conductors all over me whether I pass or stop,
  107. p. 32, line 30On all sides prurient provokers stiffening my limbs,
  108. p. 33, line 5Then all uniting to stand on a headland and worry me.
  109. p. 33, line 8They all come to the headland to witness and assist against me.
  110. p. 33, line 20All truths wait in all things,
  111. p. 34, line 5And the narrowest hinge in my hand puts to scorn all machinery,
  112. p. 34, line 10And am stucco'd with quadrupeds and birds all over,
  113. p. 36, line 28At apple-pealings, wanting kisses for all the red fruit I find,
  114. p. 37, line 26By the coffined corpse when all is still, examining with a candle;
  115. p. 38, line 17The enormous masses of ice pass me and I pass them . . . . the scenery is plain in all directions,
  116. p. 38, line 21Or we are entering by the suburbs some vast and ruined city . . . . the blocks and fallen architecture more than all the living cities of the globe.
  117. p. 38, line 24And tighten her all night to my thighs and lips.
  118. p. 38, line 28The courage of present times and all times;
  119. p. 39, line 7All this I swallow and it tastes good . . . . I like it well, and it becomes mine,
  120. p. 39, line 14All these I feel or am.
  121. p. 39, line 29Painless after all I lie, exhausted but not so unhappy,
  122. p. 41, line 5The three were all torn, and covered with the boy's blood.
  123. p. 41, line 17On our lower-gun-deck two large pieces had burst at the first fire, killing all around and blowing up overhead.
  124. p. 42, line 2They all held out bravely during the whole of the action.
  125. p. 42, line 16The flames spite of all that could be done flickering aloft and below,
  126. p. 43, line 13I rise extatic through all, and sweep with the true gravitation,
  127. p. 45, line 15Sleep! I and they keep guard all night;
  128. p. 45, line 23It is middling well as far as it goes . . . . but is that all?
  129. p. 45, line 31With Odin, and the hideous-faced Mexitli, and all idols and images,
  130. p. 45, line 32Honestly taking them all for what they are worth, and not a cent more,
  131. p. 46, line 12Selling all he possesses and traveling on foot to fee lawyers for his brother and sit by him while he is tried for forgery:
  132. p. 47, line 19I acknowledge the duplicates of myself under all the scrape-lipped and pipe-legged concealments.
  133. p. 48, line 2The fleet of ships of the line and all the modern improvements . . . . but the craft and pluck of the admiral?
  134. p. 48, line 9Enclosing all worship ancient and modern, and all between ancient and modern,
  135. p. 49, line 1The past is the push of you and me and all precisely the same,
  136. p. 49, line 2And the night is for you and me and all,
  137. p. 49, line 3And what is yet untried and afterward is for you and me and all.
  138. p. 49, line 18What is known I strip away . . . . I launch all men and women forward with me into the unknown.
  139. p. 50, line 2All has been gentle with me . . . . . . I keep no account with lamentation;
  140. p. 50, line 7All below duly traveled—and still I mount and mount.
  141. p. 50, line 23All forces have been steadily employed to complete and delight me,
  142. p. 51, line 8And all I see, multiplied as high as I can cipher, edge but the rim of the farther systems.
  143. p. 51, line 15If I and you and the worlds and all beneath or upon their surfaces, and all the palpable life, were this moment reduced back to a pallid float, it would not avail in the long run,
  144. p. 53, line 6Preferring scars and faces pitted with smallpox over all latherers and those that keep out of the sun.
  145. p. 53, line 14And I swear I never will translate myself at all, only to him or her who privately stays with me in the open air.
  146. p. 53, line 21The woodman that takes his axe and jug with him shall take me with him all day,
  147. p. 53, line 28They and all would resume what I have told them.
  148. p. 54, line 2And to glance with an eye or show a bean in its pod confounds the learning of all times,
  149. p. 57, line 8Were all educations practical and ornamental well displayed out of me, what would it amount to?
  150. p. 58, line 17Grown, half-grown, and babe—of this country and every country, indoors and outdoors I see . . . . and all else is behind or through them.
  151. p. 59, line 4All these I see . . . . but nigher and farther the same I see;
  152. p. 59, line 23The light and shade—the curious sense of body and identity—the greed that with perfect complaisance devours all things—the endless pride and outstretching of man—unspeakable joys and sorrows,
  153. p. 60, line 10I rate them as high as the highest . . . . but a child born of a woman and man I rate beyond all rate.
  154. p. 60, line 14But I am eternally in love with you and with all my fellows upon the earth.
  155. p. 60, line 16I say they have all grown out of you and may grow out of you still,
  156. p. 60, line 19The sum of all known value and respect I add up in you whoever you are;
  157. p. 60, line 23Laws, courts, the forming of states, the charters of cities, the going and coming of commerce and mails are all for you.
  158. p. 60, line 24All doctrines, all politics and civilization exurge from you,
  159. p. 60, line 25All sculpture and monuments and anything inscribed anywhere are tallied in you,
  160. p. 60, line 27If you were not breathing and walking here where would they all be?
  161. p. 61, line 1All architecture is what you do to it when you look upon it;
  162. p. 61, line 3All music is what awakens from you when you are reminded by the instruments,
  163. p. 61, line 8Does all sit there with you and here with me?
  164. p. 61, line 17The panes of the windows and all that appears through them . . . . the going forth in the morning and the aimless spending of the day;
  165. p. 61, line 21Pasturelife, foddering, milking and herding, and all the personnel and usages;
  166. p. 63, line 20In them, not yourself . . . . you and your soul enclose all things, regardless of estimation,
  167. p. 64, line 4And all else thus far known giving place to men and women.
  168. p. 66, line 4To think of all these wonders of city and country . . and others taking great interest in them . . and we taking small interest in them.
  169. p. 67, line 22The earth is not an echo . . . . man and his life and all the things of his life are well-considered.
  170. p. 68, line 17Northerner goes carried and southerner goes carried . . . . and they on the Atlantic side and they on the Pacific, and they between, and all through the Mississippi country . . . . and all over the earth.
  171. p. 68, line 20But there is more account than that . . . . there is strict account of all.
  172. p. 69, line 11If otherwise, all these things came but to ashes of dung;
  173. p. 69, line 22The vegetables and minerals are all perfect . . and the imponderable fluids are perfect;
  174. p. 70, line 3And all preparation is for it . . and identity is for it . . and life and death are for it.
  175. p. 70, line 4I WANDER all night in my vision,
  176. p. 71, line 5The head of the moneymaker that plotted all day sleeps,
  177. p. 71, line 13I dream in my dream all the dreams of the other dreamers,
  178. p. 72, line 6My hands are spread forth . . I pass them in all directions,
  179. p. 73, line 28He stands in the room of the old tavern . . . . the wellbeloved soldiers all pass through,
  180. p. 74, line 16The red squaw staid all the forenoon, and toward the middle of the afternoon she went away;
  181. p. 74, line 18All the week she thought of her . . . . she watched for her many a month,
  182. p. 75, line 24I swear they are all beautiful,
  183. p. 75, line 26The wildest and bloodiest is over and all is peace.
  184. p. 78, line 8Girls and mothers and housekeepers in all their exquisite offices,
  185. p. 79, line 1They and his daughters loved him . . . all who saw him loved him . . . they did not love him by allowance . . . they loved him with personal love;
  186. p. 79, line 12All things please the soul, but these please the soul well.
  187. p. 79, line 16I am drawn by its breath as if I were no more than a helpless vapor . . . . all falls aside but myself and it,
  188. p. 79, line 19Hair, bosom, hips, bend of legs, negligent falling hands—all diffused . . . . mine too diffused,
  189. p. 80, line 3The female contains all qualities and tempers them . . . . she is in her place . . . . she moves with perfect balance,
  190. p. 80, line 4She is all things duly veiled . . . . she is both passive and active . . . . she is to conceive daughters as well as sons and sons as well as daughters.
  191. p. 80, line 8He too is all qualities . . . . he is action and power . . . . the flush of the known universe is in him,
  192. p. 80, line 19All is a procession,
  193. p. 81, line 13There swells and jets his heart . . . . There all passions and desires . . all reachings and aspirations:
  194. p. 82, line 2Do you not see that these are exactly the same to all in all nations and times all over the earth?
  195. p. 83, line 7I see them and complain not and am content with all.
  196. p. 83, line 8Do you suppose I could be content with all if I thought them their own finale?
  197. p. 84, line 17This face of a healthy honest boy is the programme of all good.
  198. p. 84, line 20Off the word I have spoken I except not one . . . . red white or black, all are deific,
  199. p. 85, line 21Him all wait for . . . . him all yield up to . . . . his word is decisive and final,
  200. p. 86, line 1All enjoyments and properties, and money, and whatever money will buy,
  201. p. 86, line 20He resolves all tongues into his own, and bestows it upon men . . and any man translates . . and any man translates himself also:
  202. p. 88, line 6Then in their power not for all these did the blows strike of personal revenge . . or the heads of the nobles fall;
  203. p. 88, line 10Yet behind all, lo, a Shape,
  204. p. 88, line 17And all these things bear fruits . . . . and they are good.
  205. p. 89, line 16What troubles you, Yankee phantoms? What is all this chattering of bare gums?
  206. p. 90, line 7Look! all orderly citizens . . . . look from the windows women.
  207. p. 90, line 18And the March-born lambs, and the sow's pink-faint litter, and the mare's foal, and the cow's calf, and the noisy brood of the barnyard or by the mire of the pond-side . . and the fish suspending themselves so curiously below there . . and the beautiful curious liquid . . and the water-plants with their graceful flat heads . . all became part of him.
  208. p. 91, line 3And all the changes of city and country wherever he went.
  209. p. 91, line 11Affection that will not be gainsayed . . . . The sense of what is real . . . . the thought if after all it should prove unreal,
  210. p. 91, line 13Whether that which appears so is so . . . . Or is it all flashes and specks?
  211. p. 92, line 21And how I was not palpable once but am now . . . . and was born on the last day of May 1819 . . . . and passed from a babe in the creeping trance of three summers and three winters to articulate and walk . . . . are all equally wonderful.
  212. p. 92, line 22And that I grew six feet high . . . . and that I have become a man thirty-six years old in 1855 . . . . and that I am here anyhow—are all equally wonderful;
  213. p. 94, line 11The quality of truth in man supports itself through all changes,
