  124. p. 372, line 9The slain elate and alive again, the dust and debris alive,
  125. p. 373, line 7(But I see the athletes, and I see the results of the war glorious and inevitable, and they again leading to other results.)
  126. p. 376, line 1As I bathed on the beach of the Eastern Sea, and again on the beach of the Western Sea,

  133. p. 382, line 23Remember my words, I may again return,
  134. p. 389, line 4Again 'tis just at morning—a heavy haze contends with daybreak,
  135. p. 389, line 5Again the trembling, laboring vessel veers me—I press through foam-dash'd rocks that almost touch me,
  136. p. 389, line 6Again I mark where aft the small thin Indian helmsman
  137. p. 390, line 9Some suicide's despairing cry, Away to the boundless waste, and never again return.
  138. p. 390, line 16Duly by you, from you, the tide and light again—duly the hinges turning,
