Whitman & President Abraham Lincoln
O Captain! My Captain!
O Captain! My Captain!
• O Captain! my Captain! our fearful trip is done, • The ship has weathered every rack, the prize we sought is won, • The port is near, the bells I hear, the people all exulting, • While follow eyes the steady keel, the vessel grim and daring: • But O heart! heart! heart! • O the bleeding drops of red, • Where on the deck my Captain lies, • Fallen cold and dead.
（歌唱那愉悦地，极度符合神意法则的行为，）
•The Modern Man I sing.(我歌唱现代的人类。)
Free verse
Theme
