Poem by Walt Whitman

Leaves of Grass. 34. Sands at Seventy. 39. Life and Death

The two old, simple problems ever intertwined,
Close home, elusive, present, baffled, grappled.
By each successive age insoluble, pass'd on,
To ours to-day—and we pass on the same.

1. Leaves of Grass. 35. Good-Bye My Fancy. 13. Bravo, Paris Exposition!
2. Leaves of Grass. 30. Whispers of Heavenly Death. 7. Assurances
3. Leaves of Grass. 34. Sands at Seventy. 56. Old Age's Lambent Peaks
4. Leaves of Grass. 24. Autumn Rivulets. 36. With All Thy Gifts
5. Leaves of Grass. 30. Whispers of Heavenly Death. 18. Pensive and Faltering
