Walt Whitman (Уолт Уитмен)

Leaves of Grass. 24. Autumn Rivulets. 24. Unfolded out of the Folds

Unfolded out of the folds of the woman man comes unfolded, and is
      always to come unfolded,
Unfolded only out of the superbest woman of the earth is to come the
      superbest man of the earth,
Unfolded out of the friendliest woman is to come the friendliest man,
Unfolded only out of the perfect body of a woman can a man be
      form'd of perfect body,
Unfolded only out of the inimitable poems of woman can come the
      poems of man, (only thence have my poems come;)
Unfolded out of the strong and arrogant woman I love, only thence
      can appear the strong and arrogant man I love,
Unfolded by brawny embraces from the well-muscled woman
      love, only thence come the brawny embraces of the man,
Unfolded out of the folds of the woman's brain come all the folds
      of the man's brain, duly obedient,
Unfolded out of the justice of the woman all justice is unfolded,
Unfolded out of the sympathy of the woman is all sympathy;
A man is a great thing upon the earth and through eternity, but
      every of the greatness of man is unfolded out of woman;
First the man is shaped in the woman, he can then be shaped in himself.
