Question

My tongue, every atom of my blood, form’d
 from this soil, this air,

Born here of parents born here from parents
 the same, and their parents the same,

I, now thirty-seven years old in perfect health
 begin,

Hoping to cease not till death.

—Walt Whitman

Life is real! Life is earnest!

And the grave is not its goal;

Dust thou art, to dust returnest,

Was not spoken of the soul.

—Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
