La Belle Dame sans Merci
...
""And there she lulled me asleep,
And there I dream'd—Ah! woe betide!
The latest dream I ever dream'd
On the col hill's side.
"I saw pale kings and princes too,
Pale warriors, death-pale were they all'
Who cried—'La bell Dame sans Merci
Hath thee in thrall !"

Ah, love, let us be true
To one another! for the world, which seems
To lie before us like a land of dreams,
So various, so beautiful, so new,
Hath really neither joy, nor love, nor light,
Nor certitude, nor peace, nor help for pain;
And we are here as on a darkling plain
Swept with confused alarms of struggle and flight,
...

From Memories of President Lincoln
(in Leaves of Grass)
O Captain! My Captain!
...
My Captain does not answer, his lips are pale and still,
My father does not feel my arm, he has no pulse nor will;
The ship is anchored safe and sound, its voyage closed and done,
From fearful trip the victor ship comes in with object won;
Exalt, O shores! and find, O bells!
