"From the ‘Calamus’ cluster in Leaves of Grass (1860–61 edition) by Walt Whitman: ‘I meant that you should discover me so, by my faint | indirections.’ Later editions title this poem ‘Among the Multitude’. Richard F. Giles has identified marginalia in Symonds’s personal copy of the 1860–61 Leaves of Grass. Next to this line Symonds writes: ‘This is the true method wh I have failed in.’ See ‘Symonds’s Annotations in the 1860 Leaves of Grass’, Walt Whitman Review, supplement ‘Leaves of Grass at 125’ (1980), 21–36."
