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

Singing."
A similarity between Whitman's descriptions of people in the
excerpt and the descriptions of the speaker in "l. Too. Sing
America" is that both are
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.
ordinary.
O hardworking.
ashamed.
beautiful.

The similarity is the voice of America as the working man in hard labor.

Step-by-step explanation:

Walt Whitman's poem "I Hear America Singing." is one of the more quintessentially American poems about the values of the nation as Whitman saw it.

The similarity between Whitman's descriptions of people in the excerpt and the descriptions of the speaker in "l. Too. Sing America" is that the people are being portrayed as working hard and being honest and kind.

The Americans had taken pride in their ability to work for themselves and to credit this work for their success
