Savantism

Walt Whitman

   THITHER, as I look, I see each result and glory retracing itself and
         nestling close, always obligated;
   Thither hours, months, years--thither trades, compacts,
         establishments, even the most minute;
   Thither every-day life, speech, utensils, politics, persons, estates;
   Thither we also, I with my leaves and songs, trustful, admirant,
   As a father, to his father going, takes his children along with him.
