DRUM-TAPS By Walt Whitman CONTENTS INTRODUCTION DRUM-TAPS FIRST O SONGS FOR A PRELUDE. EIGHTEEN SIXTY-ONE. BEAT! BEAT! DRUMS! FROM PAUMANOK STARTING I FLY LIKE A BIRD SONG OF THE BANNER AT DAYBREAK. RISE O DAYS FROM YOUR FATHOMLESS DEEPS. VIRGINIA—THE WEST. CITY OF SHIPS. THE CENTENARIAN'S STORY. CAVALRY CROSSING A FORD. BIVOUAC ON A MOUNTAIN SIDE. AN ARMY CORPS ON THE MARCH. BY THE BIVOUAC'S FITFUL FLAME. COME UP FROM THE FIELDS FATHER. VIGIL STRANGE I KEPT ON THE FIELD ONE NIGHT. A MARCH IN THE RANKS HARD-PREST, AND THE ROAD UNKNOWN. A SIGHT IN CAMP IN THE DAYBREAK GRAY AND DIM. AS TOILSOME I WANDER'D VIRGINIA'S WOODS. NOT THE PILOT. YEAR THAT TREMBLED AND REEL'D BENEATH ME. THE WOUND-DRESSER. LONG, TOO LONG AMERICA. GIVE ME THE SPLENDID SILENT SUN. DIRGE FOR TWO VETERANS. OVER THE CARNAGE ROSE PROPHETIC A VOICE. I SAW OLD GENERAL AT BAY. THE ARTILLERYMAN'S VISION. ETHIOPIA SALUTING THE COLOURS. NOT YOUTH PERTAINS TO ME. RACE OF VETERANS. WORLD TAKE GOOD NOTICE. O TAN-FACED PRAIRIE-BOY. LOOK DOWN FAIR MOON. RECONCILIATION. HOW SOLEMN AS ONE BY ONE. AS I LAY WITH MY HEAD IN YOUR LAP CAMERADO. DELICATE CLUSTER. TO A CERTAIN CIVILIAN. LO, VICTRESS ON THE PEAKS. SPIRIT WHOSE WORK IS DONE. ADIEU TO A SOLDIER. TURN O LIBERTAD. TO THE LEAVEN'D SOIL THEY TROD. THE PATRIOTIC POEMS Of Walt Whitman
