WORLD TAKE GOOD NOTICE by WALT WHITMAN

Poet Analysis

First Line: WORLD TAKE GOOD NOTICE, SILVER STARS FADING
Last Line: NOW AND HENCEFORTH FLAUNT FROM THESE SHORES.
Subject(s): AMERICAN CIVIL WAR; U.S. - HISTORY;

World take good notice, silver stars fading,
Milky hue ript, weft of white detaching,
Coals thirty-eight, baleful and burning,
Scarlet, significant, hands off warning,
Now and henceforth flaunt from these shores.
