However
shelter’d this port and however calm these waters,
we
must not anchor here,
However
welcome the hospitality that surrounds us
We
are permitted to receive it but a little while.
Come,
I give you my hand!
I
give you my love more precious than money,
I
give you myself before preaching or law;
Will
you give me yourself? Will you come travel with me?
Shall
we stick by each other as long as we live?
-
Walt Whitman
