What Am I After All
BY
Walt Whitman


Buy Walt Whitman's Works




What am I after all but a child, pleas'd with the sound of my own
    name? repeating it over and over;
I stand apart to hear--it never tires me.


To you your name also;
Did you think there was nothing but two or three pronunciations in
    the sound of your name?
