Question

When I Heard the
Learn'd Astronomer
When I heard the learn'd astronomer;
When the proofs, the figures, were ranged in columns before me;
When I was shown the charts and diagrams, to add, divide, and measure them;
When I sitting heard the astronomer where he lectured with much applause in the lecture-room;
How soon unaccountable I became tired and sick,
Till rising and gliding out I wander'd off by myself;
In the mystical moist night-air, and from time to time;
Look'd up in perfect silence at the stars.
Walt Whitman​
