IN THE BUSY STREETS, DOMAINS OF TRADE by HENRY DAVID THOREAU

Poet Analysis

Last Line: Than brotherhood by law
Subject(s): BROTHERHOOD;

In the busy streets, domains of trade,
Man is a surly porter, or a vain and hectoring bully,
Who can claim no nearer kindredship with me
Than brotherhood by law.
