1. My transcendentalist world view is evident in my journal, Walden.

2. I am hailed as the Father of Free Verse.

3. The following passage exemplifies my writing style:
"The sexton stood in the porch of Milford meeting­house, pulling busily at the bell­rope. The
old people of the village came stooping along the street. Children, with bright faces, tripped
merrily beside their parents, or mimicked a graver gait, in the conscious dignity of their
Sunday clothes. Spruce bachelors looked sidelong at the pretty maidens, and fancied that the
Sabbath sunshine made them prettier than on week days. When the throng had mostly
streamed into the porch, the sexton began to toll the bell, keeping his eye on the Reverend Mr.
Hooper’s door. The first glimpse of the clergyman’s figure was the signal for the bell to cease
its summons."

4. The following passage exemplifies my writing style:
"A succession of loud and shrill screams, bursting suddenly from the throat of the chained
form, seemed to thrust me violently back. For a brief moment I hesitated—I trembled.
Unsheathing my rapier, I began to grope with it about the recess; but the thought of an instant
reassured me. I placed my hand upon the solid fabric of the catacombs, and felt satisfied. I
reapproached the wall; I replied to the yells of him who clamoured. I re­echoed—I aided—I
surpassed them in volume and in strength. I did this, and the clamourer grew still."
