Suppose you & N[elly] have rec'd y'r big books by this time—I can hardly tell why, but feel very positively that if any thing can justify my revolutionary attempts & utterances it is such ensemble—like a great city to modern civilization, & a whole combined clustering paradoxical identity a man, a woman—

Walt Whitman
