Walt Whitman - Bivouac On A Mountain SideWalt Whitman - Bivouac On A Mountain Side
Work rating: Medium


I see before me now, a traveling army halting; Below, a fertile valley spread, with barns, and the orchards of         summer; Behind, the terraced sides of a mountain, abrupt in places, rising         high; Broken, with rocks, with clinging cedars, with tall shapes, dingily         seen; The numerous camp-fires scatter`d near and far, some away up on the         mountain; The shadowy forms of men and horses, looming, large-sized flickering; And over all, the sky—the sky! far, far out of reach, studded,         breaking out, the eternal stars.
