And what shall my perfume be for the grave of him I love? Sea-winds blown from east and west, Blown from the Eastern sea and blown from the Western sea, till there on the prairies meeting: 76 These, and with these and the breath of my chant, I'll perfume the grave of him I love. O what shall I hang on the chamber walls? And what shall the pictures be that I hang on the walls, 80 To adorn the burial-house of him I love? Pictures of growing spring and farms and homes, With the Fourth-month eve at sundown, and the gray smoke lucid and bright, With floods of the yellow gold of the gorgeous, indolent, sinking sun, burn 84 With the fresh sweet herbage under In the distance the glowing glaze, the ing, expanding the air, foot, and the pale green leaves of the trees prolific, breast of the river, with a wind-dapple here and there, With ranging hills on the banks, with many a line against the sky, and shadows, And the city at hand with dwellings so dense, and stacks of chimneys, 88 And all the scenes of life, and the workshops, and the workmen homeward Lo, body and soul this land, returning. My own Manhattan, with spires, and the sparkling and hurrying tides, and the ships, The varied and ample land, the South and the North in the light, Ohio's shores and flashing Missouri, 92 And ever the far-spreading prairies, cover'd with grass and corn. Lo, the most excellent sun, so calm and haughty, The violet and purple morn, with just-felt breezes, The gentle, soft-born, measureless light, 96 The miracle, spreading, bathing all, the fulfill'd noon, The coming eve delicious, the welcome night, and the stars, Sing on, sing on, you gray-brown bird, 100 Sing from the swamps, the recesses, pour your chant from the bushes, Limitless out of the dusk, out of the cedars and pines. 104 Sing on, dearest brother, warble your reedy song, Loud human song, with voice of uttermost woe. O liquid and free and tender! O wild and loose to my soul! O wondrous singer! You only I hear yet the star holds me, (but will soon depart,) ...
