Leaves of Grass
Contents:
To Rich Givers
WHAT you give me I cheerfully accept,
A little sustenance, a hut and garden, a little money, as I
rendezvous with my poems,
A traveler’s lodging and breakfast as I journey through the States,-
why should I be ashamed to own such gifts? why to advertise
for them?
For I myself am not one who bestows nothing upon man and woman,
For I bestow upon any man or woman the entrance to all the gifts of
the universe.
