Analysis of To Him That Was Crucified

   MY spirit to yours, dear brother;
   Do not mind because many, sounding your name, do not understand you;
   I do not sound your name, but I understand you, (there are others
         also;)
   I specify you with joy, O my comrade, to salute you, and to salute
         those who are with you, before and since--and those to come
         also,
   That we all labor together, transmitting the same charge and
         succession;
   We few, equals, indifferent of lands, indifferent of times;
   We, enclosers of all continents, all castes--allowers of all
         theologies,
   Compassionaters, perceivers, rapport of men,
   We walk silent among disputes and assertions, but reject not the
         disputers, nor any thing that is asserted;
   We hear the bawling and din--we are reach'd at by divisions,
         jealousies, recriminations on every side,                    10
   They close peremptorily upon us, to surround us, my comrade,
   Yet we walk unheld, free, the whole earth over, journeying up and
         down, till we make our ineffaceable mark upon time and the
         diverse eras,
   Till we saturate time and eras, that the men and women of races, ages
         to come, may prove brethren and lovers, as we are.
