"I think I could turn and live with the animals, they are so placid and self-contained,
I stand and look at them long and long.
They do not sweat and whine about their condition..."

Uncle Walt is correct. I'm not familiar with "Speak with Silence."
Is that even a Whitman title?

I did not want to give the answer away and used his initials and misspoke the name of Uncle's quote. I regret to say "Speak with Silence" was never completed.
