Reconciliation(Walt Whitman)

Word over all, beautiful as the sky, 
Beautiful that war and all its deeds of carnage 
must in time be utterly lost, 
That the hands of the sisters, Death and Night 
incessantly softly wash again, 
and ever again, this soiled world; 
For my enemy is dead, a man divine as myself is dead, 
I look where he lies white-faced and still in the coffin
I draw near, bend down 
and touch lightly with my lips 
the white face in the coffin
