Read the lines from Walt Whitman's poem "I Hear America Singing."

The delicious singing of the mother, or of the young wife at work, or of

the girl sewing or washing,

Each singing what belongs to him or her and to none else,

The day what belongs to the day-at night the party of young fellows,

robust, friendly,

Singing with open mouths their strong melodious songs.

A similarity between Whitman's descriptions of people in the excerpt and the descriptions of the speaker in "I, Too, Sing America" is that both are

A) ordinary.

B) hardworking.

C) ashamed.

D) beautiful.
