Poem by Walt Whitman

Leaves of Grass. 5. Calamus. 35. Fast Anchor'd Eternal O Love!

Fast-anchor'd eternal O love! O woman I love!
O bride! O wife! more resistless than I can tell, the thought of you!
Then separate, as disembodied or another born,
Ethereal, the last athletic reality, my consolation,
I ascend, I float in the regions of your love O man,
O sharer of my roving life.

1. Leaves of Grass. 32. From Noon to Starry Night. 12. Mediums
2. Leaves of Grass. 20. By the Roadside. 24. Hast Never Come to Thee an Hour
3. Leaves of Grass. 21. Drum-Taps. 30. Race of Veterans
4. Leaves of Grass. 34. Sands at Seventy. 9. My Canary Bird
5. Leaves of Grass. 34. Sands at Seventy. 28. Old Salt Kossabone
