Poem A Day

I Dream’d in a Dream.

by Walt Whitman

I DREAM’D in a dream, I saw a city invincible to the attacks of the whole of the rest of

the

earth;

I dream’d that was the new City of Friends;

Nothing was greater there than the quality of robust love—it led the rest;

It was seen every hour in the actions of the men of that city,

And in all their looks and words. 5
