Poem by Walt Whitman


Leaves of Grass. 30. Whispers of Heavenly Death. 10. What Ship Puzzled at Sea


What ship puzzled at sea, cons for the true reckoning?
Or coming in, to avoid the bars and follow the channel a perfect
      pilot needs?
Here, sailor! here, ship! take aboard the most perfect pilot,
Whom, in a little boat, putting off and rowing, I hailing you offer.
