Im writing a paper for a class, and i have to answer "How does the style of poem reveal the speaker's attitude or reveal a theme? The Poem i'm analyzing is "Among the Multitude" by Walt Whitman.
Amonth the men and women, the multitude,
I perceive one picking me out by secret and divine signs,
Acknowledging none else - not parent, wife , husbandm brother, child any nearer than i am;
Some are baffled - but that one is not - that knows me.
Ah, lover and perfect equal!
I meant that you should discover me so, by my faint indirections;
And i, when i meet you, mean to discover you by the like in you.
All help will be greatly appreciated
