The American Mind: TRANSITION TO THE MACHINE AGE, 1865-1919. From Leaves of grass. One's self I sing. As I ponder'd in silence. To the states. Poets to come. For you O democracy. To a pupil. Song of myself. Out of the cradle endlessly rocking. A noiseless patient spider. Pioneers! O pioneers. Cavalry crossing a ford. Come up from the fields father. As toilsome I wander'd Virginia's woods. O captain! My captain! When lilacs last in the dooryard bloom'd. On the beach at night. Song of the redwood tree. Spirit that form'd this scene. Nationality and literature. American character |
