The one to remain hung on the other's neck, and passionately kissed him,

While the one to depart, tightly prest the one to remain in his arms.

No labor-saving machine,

Nor discovery have I made.

Nor will I be able to leave behind me any wealthy bequest to found a hospital or library,

Nor reminiscence of any deed of courage, for America,

Nor literary success, nor intellect — nor book for the book-shelf ;

Only these carols, vibrating through the air, I leave,

For comrades and lovers.

I DREAMED in a dream, I saw a city invincible to the attacks of the whole of the rest of the earth,

I dreamed that was the new City of Friends,

Nothing was greater there than the quality of robust love — it led the rest.

It was seen every hour in the actions of the men of that city.

And in all their looks and words.
