Walt Whitman - When I Heard the Learn`d Astronomer
Work rating: Medium

WHEN I heard the learn`d astronomer;
When the proofs, the figures, were ranged in columns before me;
When I was shown the charts and the diagrams, to add, divide, and
         measure them;
When I, sitting, heard the astronomer, where he lectured with much
         applause in the lecture-room,
How soon, unaccountable, I became tired and sick;
Till rising and gliding out, I wander`d off by myself,
In the mystical moist night-air, and from time to time,
Look`d up in perfect silence at the stars.
