Whitman Knew ...

Poet Walt Whitman knew a thing or two about the Great Old Ones. I didn't notice back when I took the Emerson/Thoreau/Whitman survey, but ran across it the other day.
"Have the elder races halted?
Do they droop and end their lesson, wearied, over there beyond the seas?"
--Walt Whitman, "O Pioneers"
