Solitary the thrush,
The hermit withdrawn to himself, avoiding the
settlements,
Sings by himself a song.
Song of the bleeding throat!
I am not contain'd between my hat and my boots.
Walt WhitmanSe è tardi a trovarmi, insisti, se non ci sono in un posto, cerca in un altro, perché io son fermo da qualche parte ad aspettare te.

Only themselves understand themselves and the like of themselves,
As souls only understand souls.

I act as the tongue of you,
... tied in your mouth . . . . in mine it begins to be loosened.
When the materials are ready, the architects shall appear.
Walt WhitmanAnd as to you death, and you bitter hug of mortality . . . . it is idle to try to alarm me
Walt WhitmanAnd as to you life, I reckon you are the leavings of many deaths, / No doubt I have died myself ten thousand times before.
Walt WhitmanIt avails not, time nor place--distance avails not,
I am with you, you men and women of a generation, or ever so many
generations hence,
Just as you feel when you look on the river and sky, so I felt,
Just as any of you is one of a living crowd, I was one of a crowd,
Just as you are refresh'd by the gladness of the river and the
bright flow, I was refresh'd,
Just as you stand and lean on the rail, yet hurry with the swift
current, I stood yet was hurried,
Just as you look on the numberless masts of ships and the
thick-stemm'd pipes of steamboats, I look'd.

Conceiv'd out of the fullest heat and pulse of European feudalism -personifying ill unparalleled ways the medieval aristocracy, its towering spirit of ruthless and gigantic caste, with its own peculiar air and arrogance (no mere imitation) -only one of the "wolfish earls" so plenteous in the plays themselves, or some born descendant and knower, might seem to be the true author of those amazing works -works in some respects greater than anything else ill recorded literature.
