Crossing Brooklyn Ferry

...or comes, or shall come, from its due emission, 
From the general centre of all, and forming a part of all:

Indications The

...THE indications, and tally of time; 
Perfect sanity shows the master among philosophs; 
Time, always without flaw, indicates itself in parts; 
What always indicates the poet, is the crowd of the pleasant company of singers, and their
 words; 
The words of the singers are the hours or minutes of the light or dark—but the words
 of
 the
 maker of poems are the general light and dark;
The maker of poems settles justice, reality, immortality, 
His insight and power encircle ...Read more of this...

...oks, friendships, philosophers, priests, action, pleasure, pride, beat up and down,

 to
 give satisfaction;
He indicates the satisfaction, and indicates them that beat up and down also. 

Whichever the sex, whatever the season or place, he may go freshly and gently and safely,
 by
 day or
 by night; 
He has the pass-key of hearts—to him the response of the prying of hands on the
 knobs. 

His welcome is universal—the flow of beauty is not more welcome or universal th...Read more of this...

The wildest and bloodiest is over, and all is peace.

Peace is always beautiful, 
The myth of heaven indicates peace and night. 

The myth of heaven indicates the Soul; 
The Soul is always beautiful—it appears more or it appears less—it comes, or it
 lags
 behind,
It comes from its embower’d garden, and looks pleasantly on itself, and encloses the
 world, 
Perfect and clean the genitals previously jetting, and perfect and clean the womb
 cohering,

MEN'S LEADER:

King Solomon he asked the Queen of Sheba,
Bowing most politely: 

[The King kneels, and indicates the entire sky with one long slow gesture.]

"Why are the stars so high,
There in the velvet sky,
Rolling in rivers by,
Ten thousand years?"

Pleasantly and well-suited I walk,
Whither I walk I cannot define, but I know it is good, 
The whole universe indicates that it is good, 
The past and the present indicate that it is good. 

How beautiful and perfect are the animals! 
How perfect the earth, and the minutest thing upon it!

What is called good is perfect, and what is called bad is just as perfect, 
The vegetables and minerals are all perfect, and the imponderable fluids are perfect;
