Poem by Walt Whitman

Leaves of Grass. 20. By the Roadside. 17. The Runner

On a flat road runs the well-train'd runner,
He is lean and sinewy with muscular legs,
He is thinly clothed, he leans forward as he runs,
With lightly closed fists and arms partially rais'd.

1. Leaves of Grass. 33. Songs of Parting. 1. As the Time Draws Nigh
2. Leaves of Grass. 34. Sands at Seventy. 28. Old Salt Kossabone
3. Leaves of Grass. 20. By the Roadside. 21. Visor'd
4. Leaves of Grass. 30. Whispers of Heavenly Death. 16. The Last Invocation
5. Leaves of Grass. 35. Good-Bye My Fancy. 29. Grand Is the Seen
