- p. 14, line 30But stop and loiter all the time to sing it in ecstatic songs.
- p. 15, line 5How there is something relentless in their fate all times,

- p. 87, line 21Womanhood, and all that is a woman, and the man that comes from woman,
- p. 88, line 6A WOMAN waits for me, she contains all, nothing is lacking,

- p. 90, line 1This poem drooping shy and unseen that I always carry, and that all men carry,
- p. 90, line 2(Know once for all, avow'd on purpose, wherever are men like me, are our lusty lurking masculine poems,)
- p. 90, line 17The curious roamer the hand roaming all over the body, the bashful withdrawing of flesh where the fingers soothingly pause and edge themselves,
- p. 90, line 25The pulse pounding through palms and trembling encircling fingers, the young man all color'd, red, ashamed, angry;
- p. 91, line 21O the puzzle, the thrice-tied knot, the deep and dark pool, all untied and illumin'd!
- p. 92, line 20Behold the great rondure, the cohesion of all, how perfect!
- p. 93, line 19We have voided all but freedom and all but our own joy.

- p. 94, line 14Yet now of all that city I remember only a woman I casually met there who detain'd me for love of me,
- p. 94, line 15Day by day and night by night we were together—all else has long been forgotten by me,
- p. 94, line 24Heard the pulse of you when all was still ringing little bells last night under my ear.
- p. 95, line 20From all the standards hitherto publish'd, from the pleasures, profits, conformities,
- p. 96, line 2Strong upon me the life that does not exhibit itself, yet contains all the rest,
- p. 96, line 7I proceed for all who are or have been young men,
- p. 97, line 10Give me yourself, for I see that you belong to me now above all, and are folded inseparably together, you love and death are,
- p. 97, line 16That you will one day perhaps take control of all,
- p. 97, line 18That may-be you are what it is all for, but it does not last so very long,
- p. 97, line 21Without one thing all will be useless,
- p. 97, line 27You would have to give up all else, I alone would expect to be your sole and exclusive standard,
- p. 97, line 29The whole past theory of your life and all conformity to the lives around you would have to be abandon'd,
- p. 98, line 27For all is useless without that which you may guess at many times and not hit, that which I hinted at;

- p. 99, line 13(For who but I should understand lovers and all their sorrow and joy?
- p. 100, line 29Not in any or all of them O adhesiveness! O pulse of my life!
- p. 101, line 2Of the uncertainty after all, that we may be deluded,
- p. 101, line 3That may-be reliance and hope are but speculations after all,
- p. 101, line 19As base and finalè too for all metaphysics.
- p. 102, line 4See the philosophies all, Christian churches and tenets see,
- p. 103, line 5O then each breath tasted sweeter, and all that day my food nourish'd me more, and the beautiful day pass'd well,
- p. 103, line 7And that night while all was still I heard the waters roll slowly continually up the shores,
- p. 103, line 20Have you no thought O dreamer that it may be all maya, illusion?
- p. 104, line 18Wafted in all directions O love, for friendship, for you.
- p. 105, line 2Saturate them with yourself all ashamed and wet,
- p. 105, line 3Glow upon all I have written or shall write, bleeding drops,
- p. 105, line 4Let it all be seen in your light, blushing drops.
- p. 105, line 22All alone stood it and the moss hung down from the branches,
- p. 106, line 6For all that, and though the live-oak glistens there in Louisiana solitary in a wide flat space,
- p. 106, line 7Uttering joyous leaves all its life without a friend a lover near,
- p. 106, line 12All is recall'd as we flit by each other, fluid, affectionate, chaste, matured,
- p. 108, line 17And yet they expose me more than all my other poems.
- p. 109, line 8You on the Mississippi and on all the branches and bayous of the Mississippi!
- p. 109, line 10You twain! and all processions moving along the streets!
- p. 109, line 14I now suspect that is not all;
- p. 109, line 23And in all their looks and words.
- p. 110, line 11These with perfect trust to depict you as myself, the germs are in all men,
- p. 110, line 13Because I perceive it waits, and has been always waiting, latent in all men.
- p. 112, line 10Each answering all, each sharing the earth with all.
- p. 117, line 18I descend upon all those cities, and rise from them again.
- p. 118, line 5I see all the menials of the earth, laboring,
- p. 118, line 6I see all the prisoners in the prisons,
- p. 118, line 16And I salute all the inhabitants of the earth.
- p. 119, line 6You other Jews waiting in all lands for your Messiah!
- p. 119, line 13All you continentals of Asia, Africa, Europe, Australia, indifferent of place!
- p. 119, line 14All you on the numberless islands of the archipelagoes of the sea!
- p. 119, line 17Health to you! good will to you all, from me and America sent!
- p. 119, line 25You poor koboo whom the meanest of the rest look down upon for all your glimmering language and spirituality!
- p. 120, line 9I have look'd for equals and lovers and found them ready for me in all lands,
- p. 120, line 18All islands to which birds wing their way I wing my way myself.
- p. 120, line 19Toward you all, in America's name,
- p. 120, line 22For all the haunts and homes of men.
- p. 121, line 13You road I enter upon and look around, I believe you are not all that is here,
- p. 121, line 24You light that wraps me and all things in delicate equable showers!
- p. 122, line 6From all that has touch'd you I believe you have imparted to yourselves, and now would impart the same secretly to me,
- p. 122, line 18I think heroic deeds were all conceiv'd in the open air, and all free poems also,
- p. 123, line 5All seems beautiful to me,
- p. 123, line 18Its effusion of strength and will overwhelms law and mocks all authority and all argument against it.)
- p. 123, line 23Applies to all stages and objects and qualities and is content,
- p. 123, line 27They may prove well in lecture-rooms, yet not prove at all under the spacious clouds and along the landscape and flowing currents.
- p. 124, line 22I think it pervades the open air, waiting at all times,
- p. 125, line 19Allons! from all formules!
- p. 126, line 7You shall scatter with lavish hand all that you earn or achieve,
- p. 127, line 3To merge all in the travel they tend to, and the days and nights they tend to,
- p. 127, line 9To see no possession but you may possess it, enjoying all without labor or purchase, abstracting the feast yet not abstracting one particle of it,
- p. 127, line 14To take your lovers on the road with you, for all that you leave them behind you,
- p. 127, line 16All parts away for the progress of souls,
- p. 127, line 17All religion, all solid things, arts, governments—all that was or is apparent upon this globe or any globe, falls into niches and corners before the procession of souls along the grand roads of the universe.
- p. 127, line 18Of the progress of the souls of men and women along the grand roads of the universe, all other progress is the needed emblem and sustenance.
- p. 128, line 4It is useless to protest, I know all and expose it.
- p. 129, line 15The impalpable sustenance of me from all things at all hours of the day,
- p. 131, line 2The flags of all nations, the falling of them at sunset,

- p. 131, line 10The men and women I saw were all near to me,
- p. 132, line 25Who knows, for all the distance, but I am as good as looking at you now, for all you cannot see me?
- p. 133, line 21Receive the summer sky, you water, and faithfully hold it till all downcast eyes have time to take it from you!
- p. 133, line 24Flaunt away, flags of all nations! be duly lower'd at sunset!
- p. 134, line 20And I answer for his brother and for men, and I answer for him that answers for all, and send these signs.
- p. 134, line 21Him all wait for, him all yield up to, his word is decisive and final,
- p. 135, line 3All enjoyments and properties and money, and whatever money will buy,
- p. 136, line 1He resolves all tongues into his own and bestows it upon men, and any man translates, and any man translates himself also,

- p. 163, line 11This earth all spann'd with iron rails, with lines of steamships threading every sea,
- p. 163, line 14Thy offspring towering e'er so high, yet higher Thee above all towering,
- p. 163, line 16Thou Union holding all, fusing, absorbing, tolerating all,
- p. 163, line 19With all thy wide geographies, manifold, different, distant,
- p. 163, line 21One common indivisible destiny for All.
- p. 164, line 3Wielding all day their axes.
- p. 164, line 17Thy barns all fill'd, the endless freight-train and the bulging storehouse,
- p. 164, line 21All thine O sacred Union!
- p. 164, line 24We dedicate, dread Mother, all to thee!
- p. 164, line 25Protectress absolute, thou! bulwark of all!
- p. 164, line 26For well we know that while thou givest each and all, (generous as God,)
- p. 164, line 27Without thee neither all nor each, nor land, home,
- p. 164, line 30And thou, the Emblem waving over all!
- p. 165, line 11Now here and these and hence in peace, all thine O Flag!
- p. 165, line 13And here and hence O Union, all the work and workmen thine!
- p. 165, line 16And lives and works, what are they all at last, except the roads to faith and death?)
- p. 165, line 18We own it all and several to-day indissoluble in thee;
- p. 165, line 21Our freedom all in thee! our very lives in thee!
- p. 166, line 20And all you venerable and innocent joys,
- p. 166, line 25And all the rocks and mountains have, and all the earth,)
- p. 167, line 19You average spiritual manhood, purpose of all, pois'd on yourself, giving not taking law,
- p. 167, line 20You womanhood divine, mistress and source of all, whence life and love and aught that comes from life and love,
- p. 167, line 21You unseen moral essence of all the vast materials of America, (age upon age working in death the same as life,)
- p. 167, line 25Unswerv'd by all the passing errors, perturbations of the surface;
- p. 167, line 26You vital, universal, deathless germs, beneath all creeds, arts, statutes, literatures,
- p. 168, line 12All their recesses of forests and mountains leaving,
- p. 168, line 15The chorus and indications, the vistas of coming humanity, the settlements, features all,
- p. 169, line 7In woman more, far more, than all your gold or vines, or even vital air.
- p. 169, line 16Were all educations practical and ornamental well display'd out of me, what would it amount to?
- p. 170, line 20And all else behind or through them.
- p. 171, line 1All these I see, but nigher and farther the same I see,
- p. 171, line 21The light and shade, the curious sense of body and identity, the greed that with perfect complaisance devours all things,
- p. 172, line 11I rate them as high as the highest—then a child born of a woman and man I rate beyond all rate.
- p. 172, line 15Then I am in love with You, and with all my fellows upon the earth.
- p. 172, line 17I say they have all grown out of you, and may grow out of you still,
- p. 172, line 20The sum of all known reverence I add up in you whoever you are,
- p. 172, line 24Laws, courts, the forming of States, the charters of cities, the going and coming of commerce and mails, are all for you.
- p. 173, line 5If you were not breathing and walking here, where would they all be?
- p. 173, line 7All architecture is what you do to it when you look upon it,
- p. 173, line 9All music is what awakes from you when you are reminded by the instruments,
- p. 173, line 14Does all sit there with you, with the mystic unseen soul?
- p. 173, line 21Coal-mines and all that is down there, the lamps in the darkness, echoes, songs, what meditations, what vast native thoughts looking through smutch'd faces,
- p. 174, line 5The cotton-bale, the stevedore's hook, the saw and buck of the sawyer, the mould of the moulder, the working-knife of the butcher, the ice-saw, and all the work with ice,
- p. 174, line 9The awl and knee-strap, the pint measure and quart measure, the counter and stool, the writing-pen of quill or metal, the making of all sorts of edged tools,

- p. 175, line 4In them, not yourself—you and your soul enclose all things, regardless of estimation,
- p. 175, line 5In them the development good—in them all themes, hints, possibilities.
- p. 175, line 16And all else giving place to men and women like you.
- p. 176, line 19It has all attributes, growths, effects, latent in itself from the jump,
- p. 177, line 2They are imbued through all things conveying themselves willingly,
- p. 177, line 14Of all the powers, objects, states, it notifies, shuts none out.
- p. 178, line 10Embracing man, embracing all, proceed the three hundred and sixty-five resistlessly round the sun;
- p. 178, line 11Embracing all, soothing, supporting, follow close three hundred and sixty-five offsets of the first, sure and necessary as they.
- p. 178, line 18Of all able and ready at any time to give strict account,
- p. 179, line 16All merges toward the presentation of the unspoken meanings of the earth,
- p. 180, line 1The best of the earth cannot be told anyhow, all or any is best,
- p. 180, line 18When the materials are all prepared and ready, the architects shall appear.
- p. 180, line 21The greatest among them shall be he who best knows you, and encloses all and is faithful to all,
- p. 181, line 13Yet again, lo! the soul, above all science,
- p. 181, line 27Electric, antiseptic yet, cleaving, suffusing all,
- p. 182, line 17Thou too surroundest all,
- p. 182, line 18Embracing carrying welcoming all, thou too by pathways broad and new,
- p. 182, line 22Deific faiths and amplitudes, absorbing, comprehending all,
- p. 182, line 23All eligible to all.
- p. 182, line 24All, all for immortality,
- p. 182, line 25Love like the light silently wrapping all,
- p. 182, line 26Nature's amelioration blessing all,
- p. 183, line 4And all the world a dream.
- p. 183, line 11We the youthful sinewy races, all the rest on us depend,
- p. 183, line 21All the past we leave behind,
- p. 184, line 7All the hands of comrades clasping, all the Southern, all the Northern,
- p. 184, line 10O beloved race in all! O my breast aches with tender love for all!
- p. 184, line 11O I mourn and yet exult, I am rapt with love for all,
- p. 184, line 14Waving high the delicate mistress, over all the starry mistress, (bend your heads all,)
- p. 184, line 29All the pulses of the world,
- p. 184, line 31Holding single or together, steady moving to the front, all for us,
- p. 185, line 2All the forms and shows, all the workmen at their work,
- p. 185, line 3All the seamen and the landsmen, all the masters with their slaves,
- p. 185, line 5All the hapless silent lovers,
- p. 185, line 6All the prisoners in the prisons, all the righteous and the wicked,
- p. 185, line 7All the joyous, all the sorrowing, all the living, all the dying,
- p. 185, line 14Lo, the brother orbs around, all the clustering suns and planets,
- p. 185, line 15All the dazzling days, all the mystic nights with dreams,
- p. 185, line 18All for primal needed work, while the followers there in embryo wait behind,
- p. 186, line 20I will leave all and come and make the hymns of you,
- p. 187, line 1Painters have painted their swarming groups and the centre-figure of all,
- p. 187, line 6You have not known what you are, you have slumber'd upon yourself all your life,
- p. 187, line 15The pert apparel, the deform'd attitude, drunkenness, greed, premature death, all these I part aside.
- p. 189, line 2And from to-day sad and cogent I maintain the bequeath'd cause, as for all lands,
- p. 189, line 6O I hear already the bustle of instruments, they will soon be drowning all that would interrupt them,
- p. 189, line 24(Who are you? and what are you secretly guilty of all your life?
- p. 189, line 25Will you turn aside all your life? will you grub and chatter all your life?
- p. 190, line 13I charge you to leave all free, as I have left all free.
- p. 191, line 4Songs thereof would I sing, to all that hitherward comes would I welcome give,
- p. 191, line 16Your chants, O year all mottled with evil and good—year of forebodings!
- p. 191, line 22With all which, had it not been, I would not now be here, as I am,
- p. 192, line 12We touch all laws and tally all antecedents,
- p. 192, line 15All swings around us, there is as much darkness as light,
- p. 192, line 17Its sun, and its again, all swing around us.
- p. 192, line 19I have the idea of all, and am all and believe in all,
- p. 192, line 26I assert that all past days were what they must have been,
- p. 193, line 6And that where I am or you are this present day, there is the centre of all days, all races,
- p. 193, line 7And there is the meaning to us of all that has ever come of races and days, or ever will come.
- p. 194, line 24Vast desolated cities, the gliding present, all of these and more are in the pageant-procession.
- p. 195, line 5Confucius himself, the great poets and heroes, the warriors, the castes, all,
- p. 195, line 6Trooping up, crowding from all directions, from the Altay mountains,
- p. 195, line 11Till as here them all I chant, Libertad! for themselves and for you.
- p. 196, line 5Be considerate with her now and ever hot Libertad, for you are all,
- p. 196, line 10Were the centuries steadily footing it that way, all the while unknown, for you, for reasons?
- p. 197, line 7Borne hither, ere all eludes me, hurriedly,
- p. 197, line 11Taking all hints to use them, but swiftly leaping beyond them,
- p. 197, line 29Singing all time, minding no time,
- p. 197, line 36And thenceforward all summer in the sound of the sea,
- p. 198, line 9All night long on the prong of a moss-scallop'd stake,
- p. 198, line 13He pour'd forth the meanings which I of all men know.
- p. 200, line 8And I singing uselessly, uselessly all the night.
- p. 200, line 15All else continuing, the stars shining,
- p. 201, line 12The word final, superior to all,
- p. 201, line 14Are you whispering it, and have been all the time, you sea-waves?
- p. 201, line 23Creeping thence steadily up to my ears and laving me softly all over,
- p. 201, line 31The word of the sweetest song and all songs,
- p. 202, line 9The rim, the sediment that stands for all the water and all the land of the globe.
- p. 202, line 27Aware now that amid all that blab whose echoes recoil upon me I have not once had the least idea who or what I am,
- p. 202, line 28But that before all my arrogant poems the real Me stands yet untouch'd, untold, altogether unreach'd,
- p. 203, line 3Because I have dared to open my mouth to sing at all.
- p. 203, line 6These little shreds indeed standing for you and me and all.
- p. 203, line 24I mean tenderly by you and all,
- p. 204, line 16Tears, not a star shining, all dark and desolate,
- p. 204, line 26THOU who hast slept all night upon the storm,
- p. 205, line 7Thou born to match the gale, (thou art all wings,)
- p. 205, line 23The beautiful and noble ship with all her precious wealth speeds away gayly and safe.
- p. 206, line 8Those burial-clouds that lower victorious soon to devour all,
- p. 206, line 16They are immortal, all those stars both silvery and golden shall shine out again,
- p. 207, line 12A vast similitude interlocks all,
- p. 207, line 13All spheres, grown, ungrown, small, large, suns, moons, planets,
- p. 207, line 14All distances of place however wide,
- p. 207, line 15All distances of time, all inanimate forms,
- p. 207, line 16All souls, all living bodies though they be ever so different, or in different worlds,
- p. 207, line 17All gaseous, watery, vegetable, mineral processes, the fishes, the brutes,
- p. 207, line 18All nations, colors, barbarisms, civilizations, languages,
- p. 207, line 19All identities that have existed or may exist on this globe, or any globe,
- p. 207, line 20All lives and deaths, all of the past, present, future,
- p. 208, line 3And out of these a chant for the sailors of all nations,
- p. 208, line 5Of sea-captains young or old, and the mates, and of all intrepid sailors,
- p. 208, line 15But do you reserve especially for yourself and for the soul of man one flag above all the rest,
- p. 208, line 16A spiritual woven signal for all nations, emblem of man elate above death,
- p. 208, line 17Token of all brave captains and all intrepid sailors and mates,
- p. 208, line 18And all that went down doing their duty,
- p. 208, line 19Reminiscent of them, twined from all intrepid captains young or old,
- p. 208, line 20A pennant universal, subtly waving all time, o'er all brave sailors,
- p. 208, line 21All seas, all ships.
- p. 210, line 10What troubles you Yankee phantoms? what is all this chattering of bare gums?
- p. 211, line 6Look, all orderly citizens—look from the windows, women!
- p. 212, line 1Then in their power not for all these did the blows strike revenge, or the heads of the nobles fall;
- p. 212, line 6Yet behind all lowering stealing, lo, a shape,
- p. 212, line 13And all these things bear fruits, and they are good.
- p. 213, line 26All great ideas, the races' aspirations,
- p. 213, line 27All heroisms, deeds of rapt enthusiasts,
- p. 214, line 7That containing the start of each and all, the virtue, the germs of all.
- p. 214, line 8OF ownership—as if one fit to own things could not at pleasure enter upon all, and incorporate them into himself or herself;
- p. 214, line 12Because all I see and know I believe to have its main purport in what will yet be supplied.
- p. 215, line 5Of the poor results of all, of the plodding and sordid crowds I see around me,
- p. 215, line 10ALL you are doing and saying is to America dangled mirages,
- p. 215, line 14I SIT and look out upon all the sorrows of the world, and upon all oppression and shame,
- p. 216, line 2All these—all the meanness and agony without end I sitting look out upon,
- p. 216, line 8For I bestow upon any man or woman the entrance to all the gifts of the universe.
- p. 216, line 20And the vast all that is call'd Evil I saw hastening to merge itself and become lost and dead.
- p. 218, line 1GLIDING o'er all, through all,
- p. 218, line 7A sudden gleam divine, precipitating, bursting all these bubbles, fashions, wealth?
- p. 218, line 12LOCATIONS and times—what is it in me that meets them all, whenever and wherever, and makes me at home?
- p. 218, line 16WHY reclining, interrogating? why myself and all drowsing?
- p. 219, line 5(With gathering murk, with muttering thunder and lambent shoots we all duly awake,
- p. 220, line 1From the houses then and the workshops, and through all the doorways,
- p. 220, line 8The salesman leaving the store, the boss, book-keeper, porter, all leaving;
- p. 220, line 17The flags flung out from the steeples of churches and from all the public buildings and stores,
- p. 220, line 25All the mutter of preparation, all the determin'd arming,
- p. 221, line 11Often in peace and wealth you were pensive or covertly frown'd amid all your children,
- p. 222, line 26Around and around to soar to sing the idea of all,
- p. 223, line 7The idea of all, of the Western world one and inseparable,
- p. 224, line 4And what does it say to me all the while?
- p. 224, line 6And nothing at all to you it says—but look you my babe,
- p. 224, line 10How envied by all the earth.
- p. 225, line 6To our children all, or north or south of Manhattan,
- p. 225, line 7Point this day, leaving all the rest, to us over all—and yet we know not why,
- p. 225, line 26Then over all, (aye! aye!) my little and lengthen'd pennant shaped like a sword,
- p. 226, line 3Discarding peace over all the sea and land.
- p. 226, line 9But these and all, and the brown and spreading land, and the mines below, are ours,
- p. 226, line 12Bays and channels and ships sailing in and out are ours—while we over all,
- p. 226, line 29Put in all, aye all will I, sword-shaped pennant for war,
- p. 227, line 7And all between those shores, and my ever running Mississippi with bends and chutes,
- p. 227, line 10Pour in! whelm that which asks, which sings, with all and the yield of all,
- p. 227, line 21Not houses of peace indeed are you, nor any nor all their prosperity, (if need be, you shall again have every one of those houses to destroy them,
- p. 227, line 23May they stand fast, then? not an hour except you above them and all stand fast;)
- p. 228, line 10Valueless, object of eyes, over all and demanding all—(absolute owner of all)—O banner and pennant!
- p. 229, line 5All the menacing might of the globe uprisen around me,
- p. 230, line 16The insane knife toward the Mother of All.
- p. 230, line 21Then the Mother of All with calm voice speaking,
- p. 231, line 1City of the world! (for all races are here,
- p. 231, line 2All the lands of the earth make contributions here;)
- p. 231, line 11Good or bad I never question you—I love all—I do not condemn any thing,
- p. 231, line 12I chant and celebrate all that is yours—yet peace no more,
- p. 232, line 22As I talk I remember all, I remember the Declaration,
- p. 233, line 26Few return'd, nearly all remain in Brooklyn.
- p. 234, line 13My General waited till the soldiers and wounded were all pass'd over,
- p. 235, line 23And over all the sky—the sky! far, far out of reach, studded, breaking out, the eternal stars.
- p. 237, line 1Above all, lo, the sky so calm, so transparent after the rain, and with wondrous clouds,
- p. 237, line 2Below too, all calm, all vital and beautiful, and the farm prospers well.
- p. 237, line 3Down in the fields all prospers well,
- p. 237, line 11All swims before her eyes, flashes with black, she catches the main words only,
- p. 237, line 15Amid all teeming and wealthy Ohio with all its cities and farms,
- p. 239, line 7Entering but for a minute I see a sight beyond all the pictures and poems ever made,
- p. 239, line 13Then before I depart I sweep my eyes o'er the scene fain to absorb it all,
- p. 240, line 6Gray and heavy blanket, folding, covering all.
- p. 240, line 9Who are you elderly man so gaunt and grim, with well-gray'd hair, and flesh all sunken about the eyes?
- p. 240, line 15Dead and divine and brother of all, and here again he lies.
- p. 240, line 19Mortally wounded he and buried on the retreat, (easily all could I understand,)
- p. 242, line 24To each and all one after another I draw near, not one do I miss,
- p. 243, line 15But a day or two more, for see the frame all wasted and sinking,
- p. 243, line 26I sit by the restless all the dark night, some are so young,
- p. 244, line 5Traveling roads all even and peaceful you learn'd from joys and prosperity only,
- p. 244, line 9GIVE me the splendid silent sun with all his beams full-dazzling,
- p. 246, line 11All the channels of the city streets they're flooding,
- p. 247, line 5Sons of the Mother of All, you shall yet be victorious,
- p. 247, line 6You shall yet laugh to scorn the attacks of all the remainder of the earth.
- p. 247, line 11More precious to each other than all the riches of the earth.
- p. 248, line 12All the scenes at the batteries rise in detail before me again,
- p. 248, line 18I breathe the suffocating smoke, then the flat clouds hover low concealing all;
- p. 248, line 22And ever the sound of the cannon far or near, (rousing even in dreams a devilish exultation and all the old mad joy in the depths of my soul,)
- p. 249, line 14No further does she say, but lingering all the day,
- p. 250, line 15When lo! more than all the gifts of the world you gave me.
- p. 250, line 20WORD over all, beautiful as the sky,
- p. 250, line 21Beautiful that war and all its deeds of carnage must in time be utterly lost,
- p. 251, line 19For I confront peace, security, and all the settled laws, to unsettle them,
- p. 251, line 20I am more resolute because all have denied me than I could ever have been had all accepted me,
- p. 252, line 2Covering all my lands—all my seashores lining!
- p. 252, line 22Out of its countless beleaguering toils, after thwarting them all,
- p. 253, line 14Spirit of hours I knew, all hectic red one day, but pale as death next day,
- p. 253, line 24Spell of all brave and manly hearts, the trains of time through you and like of you all fill'd,
- p. 254, line 8From it and all henceforth expanding, doubting no more, resolute, sweeping the world,
- p. 254, line 17To where the future, greater than all the past,
- p. 254, line 25To the rocks I calling sing, and all the trees in the woods,
- p. 255, line 2And responding they answer all, (but not in words,)
- p. 256, line 27With all the mournful voices of the dirges pour'd around the coffin,
- p. 257, line 5Blossoms and branches green to coffins all I bring,
- p. 257, line 7All over bouquets of roses,
- p. 257, line 12For you and the coffins all of you O death.)
- p. 257, line 17As you droop'd from the sky low down as if to my side, (while the other stars all look'd on,)
- p. 258, line 18And all the scenes of life and the workshops, and the workmen homeward returning.
- p. 259, line 1The miracle spreading bathing all, the fulfill'd noon,
- p. 259, line 3Over my cities shining all, enveloping man and land.
- p. 259, line 19And the summer approaching with richness, and the fields all busy with labor,
- p. 259, line 20And the infinite separate houses, how they all went on, each with its meals and minutia of daily usages,
- p. 259, line 22Falling upon them all and among them all, enveloping me with the rest,
- p. 260, line 16In the day, in the night, to all, to each,
- p. 260, line 24Then I chant it for thee, I glorify thee above all,
- p. 261, line 7Over the dense-pack'd cities all and the teeming wharves and ways,
- p. 261, line 21And at last but a few shreds left on the staffs, (and all in silence,)
- p. 261, line 22And the staffs all splinter'd and broken.
- p. 261, line 25I saw the debris and debris of all the slain soldiers of the war,
- p. 262, line 12Yet each to keep and all, retrievements out of the night,
- p. 262, line 18For the sweetest, wisest soul of all my days and lands—and this for his dear sake,
- p. 262, line 23The port is near, the bells I hear, the people all exulting,
- p. 264, line 11I reject none, accept all, then reproduce all in my own forms.

- p. 265, line 15O lands, would you be freer than all that has ever been before?
- p. 265, line 16If you would be freer than all that has been before, come listen to me.
- p. 265, line 24A work remains, the work of surpassing all they have done.
- p. 265, line 25America, curious toward foreign characters, stands by its own at all hazards,
- p. 267, line 24Wharf-hemm'd cities, railroad and steamboat lines intersecting all points,
- p. 268, line 3Slavery—the murderous, treacherous conspiracy to raise it upon the ruins of all the rest,
- p. 268, line 15To-day a carrion dead and damn'd, the despised of all the earth,
- p. 268, line 23(Bravas to all impulses sending sane children to the next age!
