Analysis of One's Self I Sing

   ONE'S-SELF I sing--a simple, separate Person;
   Yet utter the word Democratic, the word En-masse.

Of Physiology from top to toe I sing;
   Not physiognomy alone, nor brain alone, is worthy for the muse--I say
         the Form complete is worthier far;
   The Female equally with the male I sing.

Of Life immense in passion, pulse, and power,
   Cheerful--for freest action form'd, under the laws divine,
   The Modern Man I sing.
