Poem by Walt Whitman

Leaves of Grass. 35. Good-Bye My Fancy. 13. Bravo, Paris Exposition!

Add to your show, before you close it, France,
With all the rest, visible, concrete, temples, towers, goods, machines
                           and ores,
Our sentiment wafted from many million heart-throbs, ethereal but solid,
(We grand-sons and great-grandsons do not forget your grandsires,)
From fifty Nations and nebulous Nations, compacted, sent oversea to-day,
America’s applause, love, memories and good-will.

1. Leaves of Grass. 34. Sands at Seventy. Fancies at Navesink. 6. Proudly the Flood Comes In
2. Leaves of Grass. 24. Autumn Rivulets. 35. Italian Music in Dakota
3. Leaves of Grass. 34. Sands at Seventy. 10. Queries to My Seventieth Year
4. Leaves of Grass. 35. Good-Bye My Fancy. 11. Shakspere-Bacon’s Cipher
5. Leaves of Grass. 20. By the Roadside. 8. Perfections
