Talk:The Sleepers (poem)

Versioning
Since the poem has so many versions (as explained in the article), maybe preface all quotes with the edition they're taken from? The quotes mentioning the whale don't appear to be in any version of the poem I can find online, e. g. Gutenberg, poetry.com, poemhunter.com. IAmNitpicking (talk) 19:17, 21 April 2021 (UTC)
 * , I'd consider an early version of the metaphor in Whitman's notebook to be pretty clear attribution of where that quote comes from (it's from his notebook, not the finished version of the poem) Eddie891 Talk Work 15:12, 5 May 2021 (UTC)
