O CAPTAIN! MY CAPTAIN! - Walt Whitman (1819-1892) O Captain! my Captain! our fearful trip is done, The ship has weathered every rack, the prize we sought is won, The port is near, the bells I hear, the people all exulting, While follow eyes the steady keel, the vessel grim and daring; But O heart! heart! heart! O the bleeding drops of red, Where on the deck my Captain lies, Fallen cold and dead. O Captain! my Captain! rise up and hear the bells; Rise up--for you the flag is flung--for you the bugle trills, For you bouquets and ribboned wreaths--for you the shores a-crowding, For you they call, the swaying mass, their eager faces turning; Here Captain! dear father! This arm beneath your head! It is some dream that on the deck You've fallen cold and dead. My captain does not answer, his lips are pale and still, My father does not feel my arm, he has no pulse nor will, The ship is anchored safe and sound, its voyage closed and done, From fearful trip the victor ship comes in with object won; Exult, O shores, and ring O bells! But I, with mournful tread, Walk the deck my Captain lies, Fallen cold and dead.

First claim looks ok. Last two lines of first verse/(stanza?) Where on the deck my Captain lies, Fallen cold and dead. ________________________________ Second claim ... Most/all of second ... O Captain! my Captain! rise up and hear the bells; Rise up--for you the flag is flung--for you the bugle trills, For you bouquets and ribboned wreaths--for you the shores a-crowding, For you they call, the swaying mass, their eager faces turning; Here Captain! dear father! This arm beneath your head! It is some dream that on the deck You've fallen cold and dead. ______________________________________ Third claim and third verse/(stanza?) ------------------------------ Exulting could be similar to ExAlting and seems to have great energy associated with it. ___________________________________ Narrator is a survivor of a "fearful trip", but his Captain is not. N seems to have like the C. A POSSIBLE example of this could be the events around the "Battle of Trafalgar", which saw brutal and savage close range cannon fire between the English Navy under Admiral Horatio Lord Nelson, a close aide "Hardy" on the English side, and Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte's ("Boney") Navy on the French side. Nelson was killed during the battle, and possibly "folklore" says that he died in Hardy's arms, POSSIBLY knowing that the English had won the (savage) day.

I tried to refer to the link and link the 5 items in the link to the poem. If it's too complicated you can ignore it or I can delete it ? Sorry to confuse you ... don't wish to.
