And I couldn’t agree more, something beautiful about art and poetry leading to the scientific discovery, rather than the tired divorce of the two, and like Allison notes, it is fitting that Whitman would pave the way for that marriage.

This was never my favorite Whitman poem, but upon reading it again, I’m liking it more now. Whitman WOULD witness some random, rare natural event– it’s only right.

Thanks for posting this; reading it was a nice, refreshing change of pace for me.
