AMERICA always	A
Always our own feuillage	B
Always Florida's green peninsula Always the priceless delta of	C
Louisiana Always the cotton fields of Alabama and Texas	D
Always California's golden hills and hollows and the silver	E
mountains of New Mexico Always soft breath'd Cuba	F
Always the vast slope drain'd by the Southern Sea inseparable with	G
the slopes drain'd by the Eastern and Western Seas	H
The area the eighty third year of These States the three and a half	I
millions of square miles	J
The eighteen thousand miles of sea coast and bay coast on the main	K
the thirty thousand miles of river navigation	L
The seven millions of distinct families and the same number of	C
dwellings Always these and more branching forth into	M
numberless branches	N
Always the free range and diversity always the continent of	C
Democracy	O
Always the prairies pastures forests vast cities travelers	P
Kanada the snows	Q
Always these compact lands lands tied at the hips with the belt	R
stringing the huge oval lakes	S
Always the West with strong native persons the increasing density	O
there the habitans friendly threatening ironical scorning	T
invaders	P
All sights South North East all deeds promiscuously done at all	U
times	V
All characters movements growths a few noticed myriads unnoticed	W
Through Mannahatta's streets I walking these things gathering	T
On interior rivers by night in the glare of pine knots steamboats	X
wooding up	Y
Sunlight by day on the valley of the Susquehanna and on the valleys	H
of the Potomac and Rappahannock and the valleys of the Roanoke	T
and Delaware	Z
In their northerly wilds beasts of prey haunting the Adirondacks	H
the hills or lapping the Saginaw waters to drink	T
In a lonesome inlet a sheldrake lost from the flock sitting on the	F
water rocking silently	O
In farmers' barns oxen in the stable their harvest labor done they	A2
rest standing they are too tired	B2
Afar on arctic ice the she walrus lying drowsily while her cubs	H
play around	C2
The hawk sailing where men have not yet sail'd the farthest polar	E
sea ripply crystalline open beyond the floes	H
White drift spooning ahead where the ship in the tempest dashes	H
On solid land what is done in cities as the bells all strike	T
midnight together	E
In primitive woods the sounds there also sounding the howl of the	F
wolf the scream of the panther and the hoarse bellow of the	F
elk	T
In winter beneath the hard blue ice of Moosehead Lake in summer	E
visible through the clear waters the great trout swimming	T
In lower latitudes in warmer air in the Carolinas the large black	T
buzzard floating slowly high beyond the tree tops	H
Below the red cedar festoon'd with tylandria the pines and	D2
cypresses growing out of the white sand that spreads far and	D2
flat	E2
Rude boats descending the big Pedee climbing plants parasites with	G
color'd flowers and berries enveloping huge trees	H
The waving drapery on the live oak trailing long and low	F2
noiselessly waved by the wind	G2
The camp of Georgia wagoners just after dark the supper fires and	D2
the cooking and eating by whites and negroes	H
Thirty or forty great wagons the mules cattle horses feeding from	H2
troughs	H
The shadows gleams up under the leaves of the old sycamore trees	H
the flames with the black smoke from the pitch pine curling	T
and rising	T
Southern fishermen fishing the sounds and inlets of North Carolina's	H
coast the shad fishery and the herring fishery the large	B
sweep seines the windlasses on shore work'd by horses the	F
clearing curing and packing houses	H
Deep in the forest in piney woods turpentine dropping from the	F
incisions in the trees There are the turpentine works	H
There are the negroes at work in good health the ground in all	U
directions is cover'd with pine straw	I2
In Tennessee and Kentucky slaves busy in the coalings at the	F
forge by the furnace blaze or at the corn shucking	T
In Virginia the planter's son returning after a long absence	H
joyfully welcom'd and kiss'd by the aged mulatto nurse	H
On rivers boatmen safely moor'd at night fall in their boats under	E
shelter of high banks	H
Some of the younger men dance to the sound of the banjo or fiddle	J2
others sit on the gunwale smoking and talking	T
Late in the afternoon the mocking bird the American mimic singing	T
in the Great Dismal Swamp there are the greenish waters the	F
resinous odor the plenteous moss the cypress tree and the	F
juniper tree	O
Northward young men of Mannahatta the target company from an	K2
excursion returning home at evening the musket muzzles all	U
bear bunches of flowers presented by women	L
Children at play or on his father's lap a young boy fallen asleep	L2
how his lips move how he smiles in his sleep	L2
The scout riding on horseback over the plains west of the	F
Mississippi he ascends a knoll and sweeps his eye around	C2
California life the miner bearded dress'd in his rude costume the	F
stanch California friendship the sweet air the graves one in	M2
passing meets solitary just aside the horsepath	F
Down in Texas the cotton field the negro cabins drivers driving	T
mules or oxen before rude carts cotton bales piled on banks	H
and wharves	H
Encircling all vast darting up and wide the American Soul with	F
equal hemispheres one Love one Dilation or Pride	N2
In arriere the peace talk with the Iroquois the aborigines the	F
calumet the pipe of good will arbitration and indorsement	N2
The sachem blowing the smoke first toward the sun and then toward the	F
earth	F
The drama of the scalp dance enacted with painted faces and guttural	J2
exclamations	H
The setting out of the war party the long and stealthy march	O2
The single file the swinging hatchets the surprise and slaughter of	C
enemies	H
All the acts scenes ways persons attitudes of These States	H
reminiscences all institutions	H
All These States compact Every square mile of These States without	N2
excepting a particle you also me also	H
Me pleas'd rambling in lanes and country fields Paumanok's fields	H
Me observing the spiral flight of two little yellow butterflies	H
shuffling between each other ascending high in the air	Z
The darting swallow the destroyer of insects the fall traveler	E
southward but returning northward early in the spring	T
The country boy at the close of the day driving the herd of cows	H
and shouting to them as they loiter to browse by the road side	N2
The city wharf Boston Philadelphia Baltimore Charleston New	M
Orleans San Francisco	H
The departing ships when the sailors heave at the capstan	L
Evening me in my room the setting sun	L
The setting summer sun shining in my open window showing the swarm	P2
of flies suspended balancing in the air in the centre of the	F
room darting athwart up and down casting swift shadows in	M2
specks on the opposite wall where the shine is	H
The athletic American matron speaking in public to crowds of	C
listeners	H
Males females immigrants combinations the copiousness the	F
individuality of The States each for itself the money makers	H
Factories machinery	O
