Manuscript note probably recording the idea for the 1860 poem "Leaves of Grass 17," which
was ultimately titled "I Sit
and Look Out." This scrap has been attached by a collector or
archivist to a backing sheet, together with "And there a hunter's camp,"
"(written for the
voice)," and "Poem
of "(the Devil." An image of the verso is not available.
