THOUGHTS (1), by WALT WHITMAN Poet Analysis Poet's Biography
First Line: Of ownership - as if one fit to own things could not at pleasure enter upon all
Last Line: Purport in what will vet be supplied.
First Line: Of ownership - as if one fit to own things could not at pleasure enter upon all
Last Line: Purport in what will vet be supplied.
Of ownership -- as if one fit to own things could not at
pleasure enter upon all, and incorporate them into
himself or herself;
Of vista -- suppose some sight in arriere through the
formative chaos, presuming the growth, fulness, life,
now attain'd on the journey,
(But I see the road continued, and the journey ever continued;)
Of what was once lacking on earth, and in due time has
become supplied -- and of what will yet be supplied,
Because all I see and know I believe to have its main
purport in what will vet be supplied.
