The Civil War Episode 9: The Better Angels of Our Nature

"O Captain! my Captain! our fearful trip is done; The ship has weather'd every rack, the prize we sought is won; The port is near, the bells I hear, the people all exulting, while follow eyes the steady keel, the vessel grim and daring: But O heart! heart! heart! O the bleeding drops of red, where on the deck my Captain lies, fallen cold and dead." 

Walt Whitman, O Captain! My Captain, a tribute to Lincoln.
