  2. p. 24, line 18And I will show of male and female that either is but the equal of the other,
  3. p. 27, line 5Yet sailing to other shores to annex the same, yet welcoming every new brother,
  4. p. 28, line 11See, on the one side the Western Sea and on the other the Eastern Sea, how they advance and retreat upon my poems as upon their own shores,
  5. p. 32, line 14I believe in you my soul, the other I am must not abase itself to you,
  6. p. 32, line 15And you must not be abased to the other.
  7. p. 35, line 25I felt its soft jolts, one leg reclined on the other,
  8. p. 40, line 9The bugle calls in the ball-room, the gentlemen run for their partners, the dancers bow to each other,
  9. p. 41, line 4The crowd laugh at her blackguard oaths, the men jeer and wink to each other,
  10. p. 41, line 13Seasons pursuing each other the indescribable crowd is gather'd, it is the fourth of Seventh-month, (what salutes of cannon and small arms!)
  11. p. 41, line 14Seasons pursuing each other the plougher ploughs, the mower mows, and the winter-grain falls in the ground;
  12. p. 45, line 7If no other in the world be aware I sit content,
  13. p. 49, line 12Breast that presses against other breasts it shall be you!
  14. p. 52, line 27The sentries desert every other part of me,

  20. p. 86, line 21O my body! I dare not desert the likes of you in other men and women, nor the likes of the parts of you,
  21. p. 90, line 10Two sleepers at night lying close together as they sleep, one with an arm slanting down across and below the waist of the other,
  22. p. 91, line 15O to drink the mystic deliria deeper than any other man!
  23. p. 93, line 15We are seas mingling, we are two of those cheerful waves rolling over each other and interwetting each other,
  24. p. 100, line 6Interchange it youths with each other! let none render it back!)
  25. p. 100, line 27Nor the other murmurs of these incredible dreams of every day,
  26. p. 102, line 17Whose happiest days were far away through fields, in woods, on hills, he and another wandering hand in hand, they twain apart from other men,
  27. p. 106, line 12All is recall'd as we flit by each other, fluid, affectionate, chaste, matured,
  28. p. 106, line 20It seems to me there are other men in other lands yearning and thoughtful,
  29. p. 106, line 22Or far, far away, in China, or in Russia or Japan, talking other dialects,
  30. p. 108, line 2One the other never leaving,
  31. p. 108, line 17And yet they expose me more than all my other poems.
  32. p. 114, line 1I see the shaded part on one side where the sleepers are sleeping, and the sunlit part on the other side,
  33. p. 119, line 6You other Jews waiting in all lands for your Messiah!
  34. p. 127, line 18Of the progress of the souls of men and women along the grand roads of the universe, all other progress is the needed emblem and sustenance.

  36. p. 141, line 1Observing the spiral flight of two little yellow butterflies shuffling between each other, ascending high in the air,
  37. p. 141, line 18The migrating flock of wild geese alighting in autumn to refresh themselves, the body of the flock feed, the sentinels outside move around with erect heads watching, and are from time to time reliev'd by other sentinels—and I feeding and taking turns with the rest,
  38. p. 147, line 4To confront with your personality all the other personalities of the earth.
  39. p. 147, line 26My real body doubtless left to me for other spheres,
  40. p. 149, line 7Welcome just as much the other more hard-faced lands,
  41. p. 150, line 10The hook'd arm over the plate, the other arm wielding the axe,
  42. p. 157, line 20Shapes ever projecting other shapes,
  43. p. 161, line 15Others for other arts—learning, the sciences, shall all be here,
  44. p. 165, line 1In other scenes than these have I observ'd thee flag,
  45. p. 170, line 19Grown, half-grown and babe, of this country and every country, indoors and out-doors, one just as much as the other, I see,
  46. p. 182, line 20The measur'd faiths of other lands, the grandeurs of the past,
  47. p. 185, line 26(Shrouded bards of other lands, you may rest, you have done your work,)
  48. p. 195, line 27As to-morrow from the other side the queen of England sends her eldest son to you.
  49. p. 196, line 11They are justified, they are accomplish'd, they shall now be turn'd the other way also, to travel toward you thence,
  50. p. 202, line 13Miles walking, the sound of breaking waves the other side of me,
  51. p. 207, line 8The change onward from ours to that of beings who walk other spheres.
  52. p. 212, line 17They live in other young men O kings!
  53. p. 229, line 3Noted the slender and jagged threads of lightning as sudden and fast amid the din they chased each other across the sky;
  54. p. 234, line 25As resolute in defeat as other generals in their proudest triumphs?
  55. p. 242, line 1Of unsurpass'd heroes, (was one side so brave? the other was equally brave;)
  56. p. 247, line 3Those who love each other shall become invincible,
  57. p. 247, line 11More precious to each other than all the riches of the earth.
  58. p. 250, line 14You came, taciturn, with nothing to give—we but look'd on each other,
  59. p. 257, line 17As you droop'd from the sky low down as if to my side, (while the other stars all look'd on,)
  60. p. 259, line 26And the thought of death close-walking the other side of me,
  61. p. 265, line 23The immortal poets of Asia and Europe have done their work and pass'd to other spheres,
  62. p. 266, line 20Used to dispense with other lands, incarnating this land,
  63. p. 274, line 12Underneath the lessons of things, spirits, Nature, governments, ownerships, I swear I perceive other lessons,
  64. p. 280, line 30Other the arms the fields henceforth for you, or South or North,
  65. p. 281, line 7I see the heroes at other toils,
  66. p. 285, line 19I will not touch my flesh to the earth as to other flesh to renew me.
  67. p. 287, line 23The named and unnamed heroes pass to other spheres,
  68. p. 291, line 8No consummation exists without being from some long previous consummation, and that from some other,
  69. p. 303, line 19Who, out of the theory of the earth and of his or her body understands by subtle analogies all other theories,
  70. p. 304, line 1Who believes not only in our globe with its sun and moon, but in other globes with their suns and moons,
  71. p. 305, line 7And that my soul embraces you this hour, and we affect each other without ever seeing each other, and never perhaps to see each other, is every bit as wonderful.
  72. p. 310, line 2It is round, it is only a few inches from one side to the other;
  73. p. 313, line 25I see again the wild old Corybantian dance, the performers wounding each other,
  74. p. 319, line 26On one side China and on the other side Persia and Arabia,
  75. p. 326, line 15I go from bedside to bedside, I sleep close with the other sleepers each in turn,
  76. p. 326, line 16I dream in my dream all the dreams of the other dreamers,
  77. p. 326, line 17And I become the other dreamers.
  78. p. 330, line 26I swear they are averaged now—one is no better than the other,

  80. p. 335, line 3To think that other working-men will make just as great account of them, yet we make little or no account.
  81. p. 343, line 8I listen to the different voices winding in and out, striving, contending with fiery vehemence to excel each other in emotion;
  82. p. 345, line 6I was thinking this globe enough till there sprang out so noiseless around me myriads of other globes.
  83. p. 345, line 8And now touch'd with the lives of other globes arrived as far along as those of the earth,
  84. p. 347, line 14The conceits of the poets of other lands I'd bring thee not,
  85. p. 348, line 20With all their ancient struggles, martyrs, heroes, epics, wars, thou bear'st the other continents,
  86. p. 357, line 12No other theme but love—knitting, enclosing, all-diffusing love.
  87. p. 357, line 20No other words but words of love, no other thought but love.

  90. 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.)
  91. p. 373, line 13And how these of mine and of the States will in their turn be convuls'd, and serve other parturitions and transitions,
  92. p. 375, line 14To have gone forth among other Gods, these men and women I love.
  93. p. 410, line 13Wafting to other work, to unknown songs, conditions,
